That left a mark.
X user and Toronto Blue Jays fan Liz McGuire was at a game this week when she took at 110 mph foul ball to the forehead.
Hey @BlueJays I got my face mashed in by a 110mph foul off Bo Bichette's bat. I didn't even get the ball. I even stayed till the end of the game. Any way you can hook a girl up? #tothecore #bluejays pic.twitter.com/uXJqXenVLm

Ouch.
She definitely should get something besides a goose egg and a black eye. And yes, she did get it checked out at the hospital after the game.
Bro you got hit with it and someone took the ball from you?? 😭

Low blow, isn't it?
I got Bo Bichette's permission to make things better 😉#ToTheCore #BlueJays pic.twitter.com/Uwr67mWuFo

While the Blue Jays -- thus far -- haven't given her some love, Topps did take notice.

Great PR move by @Topps. Strange to see a response from them earlier than by the @BlueJays https://t.co/LbQVVr3M66
