Pirates prospect Will Craig hit by pitch twice at MLB All-Star Futures Game

Pirates fans and coaches alike wanted to see what Will Craig could do at Sunday's MLB All-Star Futures Game.

They left disappointed.

In the top of the second, Craig took the plate for his first at-bat of the day. He was hit by a 95-MPH heater up and in. Coincidentally enough, Craig was wearing a live mic during the at-bat, and it caught his discussion at first base.

"Dude, 95 right at me!" Craig exclaimed, clearly surprised to get clipped in an All-Star showcase.

So imagine how surprised he was when it happened again in his second at-bat in the fourth.
