From rotoworld: Will Rhymes collapsed on the field during Wednesday's game after he took first base following a hit-by-pitch. It was a scary incident. Rhymes was in a ton of pain after getting hit by a pitch on his arm, but he took his base after being looked at by trainers. Then, just before the next batter stepped in, he fell down in a heap at first base. He eventually sat back up and was taken off in a cart by paramedics. We'll update his status when more is known.

this exact thing happened to a friend in HS. He ended up being fine, it was like a "kink" in blood flow causing temporary lack of blood to flow to his brain... or some shite like that

Damn that's rough. Prayers sent. I've seen that clip where Hank Gathers collapses a few times, it's pretty rough footage.

Damn, Ryhmes hosted me on my visit to William and Mary. He's a great guy, and I hate to see that happen to him. He played HS ball at Lamar in Houston.

I was watching, and had no clue how he passed out. My wife said that sometimes pain could cause that. Severe pain can cause the body to go into shock. I would guess that having the bones in your elbow/forearm shatter from a 95 mph fastball would cause severe pain.

The adrenaline rush can shorten the oxygen supply to the brain and cause you to lose your balance.

I had something similar happen to me during football practice back in the day. Wrapped up a guy for a tackle, and had a fellow defender come in to assist with the take down. The other defender's helmet hit my funny bone. Right before the next snap, which was a good 30-40 seconds later, I passed out while standing in my position getting ready for the next play. Elbow and arm hurt for a good hour after that.
