CINCINNATI -- Pitcher Daniel Castano was hit on the forehead by a 104 mph line drive off the bat of Donovan Solano in the first inning of the Miami Marlins' 7-6 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday.
The ball hit the bill of his cap and ricocheted off the crown, manager Don Mattingly said. The team said Castano has a mild concussion and a bruised forehead and a CT scan was normal.
"I'm not sure what happened,'' Castano said after the game, wearing a bandage on his forehead where some skin had scraped off.
