Occasional Digest - a story for you

The sight of Carlos Marcias lying on the ground in front of home plate at Birmingham High after getting hit by a pitch in the bottom of the seventh inning Saturday was worrisome. There was blood after he apparently suffered a broken nose. He’d be taken to the hospital. All his teammates could do would be deliver victory as a present. And they did.
