Tyler O’Neill and Rafael Devers of the Boston Red Sox violently crashed into one another in the field, leading to both players staying on the ground, injured.

The scary moment came in the seventh inning, when Estevan Florial popped a fly ball into left field. Devers drifted back from third base and O’Neill in from left field. Neither saw one another as they looked up for the ball and they hit each other in the head while going to make the play.

You can watch the scary moment, here:

Tyler O’Neill, whose sunglasses can be seen flying from his face, was visibly bleeding from his forehead. He was eventually able to walk off the field under his own power while holding what appeared to be a rag against his face. However, he needed to leave the game.

Rafael Devers was actually about to make the catch, despite the violent collision that led to him being shaken up on the play.
