Hunter Pence Overreacts To Fastball, Loses His Helmet In Process
By Michael Terrill
@MichaelTerrill
Do not get me wrong, Kansas City Royals starter Yordano Ventura has a freakishly fast fastball. And, San Francisco Giants’ Hunter Pence had every reason to be afraid of the 99 MPH baseball hurling towards him. With that said, the overreaction was a bit ridiculous, especially since it was never close to hitting him. Regardless, Pence reacted as many of us would have, which resulted in his helmet flying off his head.
The Royals currently have a 2-1 lead over the Giants in Game 2 of the World Series.
