Josh Donaldson Accident with the Bat

Josh, an American Professional Baseball player who is a Third Baseman in Toronto Blue Jays of Major League Baseball (MLB) had some mishaps during his game on Monday.

Donaldson was the third batter in the game at Fenway Park where the scary accident occurred. He swung the bat at the pitch from Red Sox starter Eduardo Rodriguez and somehow lost the handle on his bat.

It was a hard swing and a foul ball at the time when his bat flew and went straight to the Umpire’s head which was unprotected.

Umpire Chris Segal was not wearing anything to protect his head but was wearing a mask and a baseball cap but no helmet.

And the moment when his head was struck by the full force bat it made a very strong sound as it was seen and Segal crumbled to the ground.

Boston catcher Christian Vazquez was near him and tried to help him get up but Chris went back to the ground not being able to stand up and remained there for a few minutes until training staff came running out.

After a few minutes of the accident, Segal seemed fine as he was smiling and standing on his feet. He passed all the tests by the medical team as he remained in the game afterward.

And Donaldson struck out swinging.
