Umpire Kerwin Danley Got Knocked Out by a Foul Ball

SJ - April 28, 2021

Umpire Kerwin Danley left the Rockies-Giants game on Tuesday night in the 6th inning after taking a foul ball to the mask. He went down immediately then slowly rolled to his side. It appeared as if he had been knocked out momentarily.

Danley, who has a history of head injuries, might have his knockout button permanently pressed. If you know anything about fighters once their button is pressed a strong wind can put them to sleep.

The fact that this didn't look like much and still put Danley down is an indicator that his button is permanently pressed.
