CelebnSports247.com reports that Kevin Pillar is showing off his battle scars to the media less than 24 hours after being hit in the face with a fastball.

New York Mets outfielder Kevin Pillar was drilled in the face by a 94-MPH pitch, and he was immediately raced to the hospital.

Kevin, a 32-year-old who’s known as one of the toughest dudes in the MLB, couldn’t duck out of the way … and was hit flush right in the middle of his face.

You can see in the video and pictures, blood was pouring out of what appeared to be multiple areas of his face.

But, after several moments on the ground, Pillar was able to get up and walk off the field under his own power … though Mets manager Luis Rojas said his player required an immediate trip to the hospital for testing.

Pillar said he’ll “be fine” and knows Webb didn’t intentionally try to hit him.

Kevin Pillar said (above):

I know he feels bad, I know me and him have talked last night, today. I’m almost more worried about him than I am myself. I know I saw his reaction and I know how tough that could be on someone who feels responsible for someone getting injured.

The Mets said in a statement Tuesday morning, Pillar suffered “multiple nasal fractures” and will require further testing and meetings with doctors to figure out his next steps in recovery.

Take care of yourself, Kevin.
