Ward instantly fell to the bottom grabbing his face which already had blood streaming from the highest of his nostril. Manoah, seemingly shaken by the incident, threw his fingers to his head and commenced pacing across the mound whereas the gang fell silent. Ward was rapidly attended to by Angels trainers, gamers and the interim supervisor.

Ward was carted out of the sport to thunderous applause, his left eye seemingly swelled utterly shut, as seen in a separate video. (RELATED: Ian Happ Hits Wilson Contreras In Head With Backswing. Miles Mikolas Then Will get Ejected For Revenge)

This was the second time within the recreation that Manoah hit a batter with a pitch after hitting Angels Shohei Ohtani within the first inning, in keeping with ESPN.

Thankfully, it seems the pitch caught the ear-portion of Ward’s helmet presumably absorbing a big a part of the drive that will have in any other case been inflicted on Ward.

It’s unclear exactly what sort of damage Ward faces, or how lengthy he could also be out, however this horrifying scene might threaten Angels playoff hopes as they try and make a late-season push.
