Pat Neshek Got Cracked Upside His Face

Twins reliever Pat Neshek might not have the most visually appealing site, but hey, he sure is fan friendly. Neshek responds to e-mails, riffs on baseball card collecting -- all and all, he seems like a swell fellow.

So when fans asked to see a video of Neshek taking a ball off his face freshman year of college at Butler in a game against Wichita St., Neshek provided it for them. Even uploaded it onto YouTube himself.

I've got to say: that looked nasty. But Neshek seems to take it in stride like a real man. If that was me, I would have been on the ground crying my eyes out. And I wouldn't have uploaded it to YouTube.
