Minor League baseball can be a rough life for a player. The bus trips, low pay and struggle to work your way to the show.
Then there’s the stadiums. The stadiums that fight back.
Take for instance what happened to Clinton LumberKings designated hitter Nick Zammarelli who fouled a ball off the roof of the stadium, only to have it come back and hit him square in the head.

Zammarelli appeared to be okay and was a good sport about it afterwards on Twitter.
First at bat I fell swinging and then second at bat the ball comes back and hits me on the head… #StayHot https://t.co/S6qGyWucF6
