Also happening tonight — if you’re not watching baseball or James Comey — is the Academy of Country Music Awards where singer Carrie Underwood returned to the stage for the first time since her horrific injury that reportedly led to 40-50 stitches in her face.
The crowd, to put it mildly, was psyched to have her back:

And as for the damage done to her face from the fall, there looks to be no issue at all:
