A 61-year-old man sitting behind the Louisville dugout at the College World Series sustained a minor cut to his head when he was struck by a bat that flew out of a player’s hands Sunday.

Burke Perry of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, was in the second row when Louisville’s Josh Stowers lost grip of his bat as he swung at a pitch against Texas A and M to end the third inning.

Perry had about a 2-inch cut on the top of his head. He said the bat “just skimmed me.”
