in Game 1 of the ALDS between the Angels and Royals, umpire Paul Nauert took a bouncing pitch (the MLB.com play-by-play called it a 90 mph four-seam fastball, but it looked on replays like a curveball) directly to the junk. It was funny to watch, but it probably hurt a lot, which isn’t so funny.

“Hey catcher. YOU HAD ONE JOB TO DO,” Nauert probably thought as he tried to deal with the searing pain.
