Ouch!

Colorado Rockies television reporter Kelsey Wingert is recovering as she took a foul ball straight to her dome.

The scary incident happened during a game between the Rockies and San Francisco Giants at Coors Field in Denver.

The Giants' Austin Slater hit a foul ball off the Rockies' Daniel Bard in the top of the ninth inning and the ball hit Wingert, who was seated in the first-base camera well while reporting for AT&T Sportsnet.

"I took a 95 MPH line straight into my forehead," she wrote on her social media. "I had a CT scan to make sure there was no internal bleeding of fractures and all came back clear. Thank God," Wingert continued. "The stitches will have to come out in a week. I'm very lucky it wasn't worse. It was just really scary and bummed me out given the circumstances."
