Erin Andrews hit by a foul ball, nationwide panic ensues
I don’t know how this slipped through the cracks here at TSR yesterday, but ESPN reporter Erin Andrews apparently took one on the chin (huh-huh, huh-huh) during a Mets-Dodgers game on Wednesday:
Andrews — who serves as a sideline reporter for ESPN — was struck in the chin by a foul ball hit by New York Mets player Alex Cora during the 4th inning.
Erin was hustled to the hospital a few innings later, but only suffered a bruised chin.
UPDATE: ESPN just released the following statement:
“She’s totally fine. The producers on site suggested she go to the hospital as a precaution. Doctors released her soon thereafter. She flew home as scheduled and is looking forward to working MLB All-Star events and the ESPYs in the coming week.”
Nothing good happens at Mets games these days – NOTHING.
For the love of God man is she ok…………I worry endlessly about cheerleaders on the sidelines and now this happens.
Can we get some protection for the women’s out there? Where are all the tough guys when we need them? Oh, that right they’re shooting themselves, hammered, on drugs or beating the wife, in jail already or feeding the dogs.
