Summary
A 107 mph liner off Brandon Nimmo's bat struck Seth Lugo in the head Wednesday night, but the Royals said the pitcher was doing well and his CT scan came back clear.
The ball hit Lugo during the fourth inning at Kauffman Stadium, sending him to the mound immediately before he got up and left the game for further evaluation.
Nimmo, Lugo's former Mets teammate, appeared shaken, touched first base, then ran to the mound to check on him.
Lugo later said he was trying to calm Nimmo down, calling the play an unfortunate situation and saying the Royals would still follow proper protocols before his next outing.
