This is flat-out evil:

Mark R. Downs Jr., 27, of Dunbar, offered one of his players $25 to hit the boy in the head with a baseball, police said. Witnesses told police Downs didn't want the boy to play in the T-ball game because of his disability.
The solicited player hit the boy in the head and in the groin with a baseball just before a game, and the disabled boy didn't play, police said.


If convicted, I hope that he gets sentenced to take a couple of Curt Schilling heaters to the groin before he goes to prison.
