Brandon Nimmo was drilled in the head by a 91 mph fastball from Giants starter Kyle Harrison in the bottom of the third of Friday night’s game at Citi Field and somehow remained in the game despite clearly being staggered by the pitch.

The ball hit Nimmo in the ear flap he had attached to his helmet, which certainly prevented more damage. 

He was kept on his feet by J.D. Martinez, who walked over from the on-deck circle as Nimmo stumbled in his direction as he shook off the effects of the hit by pitch.

After being checked out by the Mets’ training staff, Nimmo remained in the game and stole second base.
