A Pleasant afternoon at Fenway Park was shook to its core when a wild first pitch was thrown well past the catcher and nailed an unsuspecting photographer straight in the nuts. The ceremonial throw by Jimmy Fund Clinic patient Jordan will go down in history as one of the worst ever, supplanting 50 Cent’s first pitch from years ago.
You can witness the immediate destruction wreaked upon the photog’s nether regions in the shot below.
In what can only now be described as the Zapruder Film of Nut Shots, we can see various reactions from the gathered friends and family, but mostly the animated and terrified reaction of Wally, the Green Monster. Notice Wally look to an official, hands on his big green face, unsure of what to do or how to help this man in his ultimate time of need.
Jordan, horrified at the damage he accidentally caused, does his best not to laugh in this troubled time.
Impressively, the photographer was even able to snap a still shot of his impending doom just moments before impact. It’s chilling, and a reminder that anyone can get hit in the nuts at any time, without warning.
My camera man @TonyCapobianco is the poor guy that took that first pitch in the McNuggets. Here's his view of it coming in. pic.twitter.com/NVD70hiIn2

Thankfully, the tale of woe has a partially happy ending, as the photographer took to Twitter to reveal that it was only a partial strike to his zone.
