ALLENTOWN - Tommy Joseph had been hit in the forehead with foul tips. The catcher had been hit on the top of the head. On Monday night, Joseph was hit in the jaw. He said it caught him in a different way than any ball ever has.
"It caught me in a different spot and jarred me a little different," Joseph said. "After that, I just wasn't feeling right."
Joseph, 23, remained in triple-A Lehigh Valley's game for another inning before talking to the team's trainer. Joseph said he was out of the game 30 seconds later.
