John Kruk comments on bat boy's mishap during Phillies game

During a Philadelphia Phillies broadcast on August 19, John Kruk reacted to an incident involving a bat boy hitting himself in the groin with a foul ball. In the fifth inning, Miami Marlins player Owen Caissie fouled a pitch from Zack Wheeler, leading the bat boy to attempt to field it. The ball took an unfortunate hop, resulting in a painful hit. Kruk humorously noted the necessity of protective gear, advising that if unprotected, 'adoption is an option.' This moment added an unexpected layer of comedy to the broadcast as both Kruk and his co-commentator, Tom McCarthy, cringed at the incident.
