Catcher Lands On Disabled List After Taking Foul Ball To The Nuts

The Baltimore Orioles lost to the Boston Red Sox 7-2 on Memorial Day, but something tells us that’s the least of Caleb Joseph’s concerns right now.

That’s because the Orioles catcher took a foul ball off the bat of Travis Shaw straight to his nards in the top of the eighth inning:

To his credit, Joseph found a way to finish the game behind the plate after being tended to by the trainer for several minutes. He was taken to a hospital after the game, and it was announced today that he’ll be spending at least the next 15 days on the disabled list.

The Orioles didn’t go into detail in regards to Joseph’s DL stint, but let’s be honest: They shouldn’t have to. Baltimore has called up Francisco Peña to replace Joseph while he ices down his balls for the next few weeks, but if you’re an Orioles fan, you’re hoping Peña never sets foot on the diamond because he sucks.
