OH, C'MON MLB.....! This is Getting Out of Control!

Are you kidding me? 60' 6" away from a rock being shot at you at 105 mph? and nothing protecting your melon? WTF? At least send pitchers out there with a more sleek version of what boxers wear when sparring. sheesh.

Just keep in mind what G. Stanton's launch speed approaches!! 117+ !!!! A pitcher hit with that anywhere on the top half of his head will die INSTANTLY. Why are y'all tempting Christ?

It was funny back in the early '60s, but it's reality now!
