Brain Break: (Literally!) Hero Saves Boy From Flying Bat at Pirates Game Take a breather from work and check out the greatest arm in Major League Baseball.
By Dan Bova
The above photo is one of two freaky frames captured by photographer Christopher Horner during a Pittsburgh Pirates spring training game this Saturday. When a bat went flying into the stands, most people ducked (can't blame them) but thankfully one unidentified man put himself in peril, narrowly avoiding a little kid from getting whacked in the face. Get that man an ice pack and an ice-cold beer!
