Josh Beckett returned to Red Sox camp in Fort Myers, Fla., Tuesday less than 24 hours after he was accidentally hit in the head with a ball during batting practice before the game against the Minnesota Twins.
“I just got checked and I’m definitely feeling better today than I did yesterday,” Beckett said. “That’s encouraging, but I don’t know where we go from here. I feel better today. I feel like I got hit in the head. Getting rid of the headaches I had yesterday is probably good.”

That has to be photoshopped. There’s actually a black guy in the crowd.
Optimistic Yankee Fan! March 2, 2011 00:31
Is this a where’s waldo type of game? I can’t find him
Wise Guy March 2, 2011 00:38
I can’t either.

Upper right, blue shirt, you cant see his head
Sensitive RAB guy March 2, 2011 02:05
That guy might be Indian, at best.
Nope, no blacks.
[Censored] March 2, 2011 09:26
You mean an indian like Joba?
Sensitive RAB guy March 2, 2011 11:50
an Indian like NoMaas’ PhotoShoppers

Cephster, nice Italian boy.

I’m going to tell Ben’s dad.

It’s debatable that the guy is black. Looks more like a dark-skinned white to me. Could even have tattoos on his arm.
Based on history, I say the guy isn’t black.
TSJC March 2, 2011 13:47
Racist fools. I need me a punk.
Asshat Hero March 3, 2011 15:51
Yep, remember they’re in Florida so maybe he laid out in the sun a few hours, lol.
bartonbickle March 2, 2011 00:52
He took a liner off the head the right way
DormantUlcer March 2, 2011 02:49
I hope he recovers fully and gets back on the field. Who else are the Yankees going to smack around in that rotation?
I mean, besides Lackey, Wakefield, and Matsusaka.
Billy Ray Valentine March 2, 2011 04:15
No no…he’s right. He’s clearly black…however I think he might have just put the beer cooler on the ground so he could count out the proper change.
Meaty Balls March 2, 2011 05:17
I still ended up in Josh’s mouth.
Ross March 4, 2011 14:45
COME TO DADDY
Lupica Swallows March 2, 2011 06:29
I am going to write this like Mike Lupica would: Josh Beckett the guy who stands on the mound & dares you to hit it. The guy the Yanks wish they had instead of that CC guy. You know the good teammate. Josh Beckett the guy who has had one good season in the majora and yet pussies like me can’t stop talking about it. Yeah that guy. Did I mention the Yankees have a payroll near $200 million?
Rex Ryan's Wife's Feet March 2, 2011 12:55
Mike Lupica drives me up the wall. Also, he is a bed wetting pinko.
Meaty Balls March 2, 2011 16:49
I will end up in Mike Lupica’s mouth by night’s end.
Meaty Balls March 3, 2011 15:18
I mean, Mike Lupica will end up in MY mouth by night’s end.
[Censored] March 2, 2011 07:13
Maybe this will make him think twice when he decides to start beaning yankees everytime he has a bad game.
Kim Last March 2, 2011 13:49
Beckett has lumps.
BadAssBillyCurtis March 2, 2011 15:52

Meaty Balls March 2, 2011 16:48
I’m going to end up in your mouth by night’s end!

Josh Beckett March 3, 2011 12:33
I would so bean you in the head if you were real.

Lumps in Billys mouth.

How the hell does a hardheaded SOB like Beckett get a concussion? I didn’t think anything could penetrate that skull.
Asian Groundskeepers March 2, 2011 11:01
He’s still shitty.
jobu March 2, 2011 12:01
Don’t drink my rum.
Joba March 2, 2011 15:52
don’t eat my snickers
Typical No Maas Commenter March 3, 2011 00:45
If the Yankees hadn’t ruined his career, Joba would be a slim, trim CY Young winner.
Joba March 3, 2011 15:55
Errr drink my moonshine, you varmint!
R2-D2 March 2, 2011 15:13
I don’t see what the big deal is here. A ball hits a cinder block, cinder block wins.
Daps March 2, 2011 16:12
does anyone recognize the genius of this? the standing O?

Mouth lumps.
Pinky Higgins March 2, 2011 18:32
Did somebody say there was a black guy in that crowd? Beckett can’t even think once no less twice come on
Larry Roth's Child March 2, 2011 18:35
I can fix him
Stephen March 3, 2011 03:35
After being hit, Josh Beckett quickly replied, “Don’t worry guys, I’m used to taking balls on the chin.”

You guys are cruel and racist and mean and nasty and snotty and elite and horrible and will go to hell.
