Tyler Freeman left Saturday night’s game after Jacob Misiorowski hit him flush in the helmet with a 98 mph pitch in the sixth inning.
Misiorowski and Freeman both appeared shaken, but Freeman walked off under his own power after Rockies trainers attended to him on the field.
Warren Schaeffer said Freeman “seems fine” afterward, calling it about as well as anyone could take a 101 mph shot to the helmet.
The frightening moment came during another overpowering outing from the Brewers fireballer, who also uncorked a starter-record 103.7 mph pitch against Colorado.
