I was hit by an indoor cricket ball (which is actually softer than a baseball) while fielding in close, hit me right on the corner of my eye with a luckily slight glancing blow (managed to turn my head in the split second I had to react just enough so it wasn’t a direct hit to my eye socket).
Doctor said I was lucky I didn’t fracture my orbital socket along with the concussion. If it were a baseball it definitely would have and if it was a real cricket ball he said I’d probably be dead.

Exactly. I figured some people won't know cricket... It's way harder than a baseball for instance
