Korean baseball player eats it with face-first slide -- 

Sliding head-first is a risky move. Just ask Bryce Harper, who tore a ligament in his
thumb doing it. Usually you don't have to worry about scraping up your face,
but Hwang Jae-gyun of the Korea Baseball Organization wasn't so lucky. Hwang slid
so aggressively into third base he ended up dragging his face along the dirt. And to
add insult to injury, he was called out on the play. Maybe he would have been safe had
his face not provided all that extra friction.
Ouch. Here's what Hwang's face looked like in the aftermath (via MyKBO).
It's too bad Hwang will probably only be known in America for this terrible slide. He's
actually a pretty good player, batting .329 so far this year. He just needs to work on
his baserunning.
