Getting hit in the head can be fatal, especially at 95 mph. This was the fear with Kelsey Wingert. Even if the collision hadn't proved fatal, it could've inflicted brain damage, internal bleeding, or other maladies.

Wingert further said that both the Colorado Rockies organization and her broadcasting company have treated her "like family." Miraculously, Wingert is okay. In other news, the Rockies are just 1-5 against the St. Francisco Giants this year.
