Justin Turner has seen better days.

Baseball can be pretty scary, especially when a baseball is coming at a batter at insane speeds. Justin Turner of the Boston Red Sox found that out the hard way.

Turner was hit by a pitch during a Spring Training game between the Boston Red Sox and the Detroit Tigers back on March 6th, but he just recently shared some of the photos of his face from after the incident.

This is the face only a mother could love.
