Ozzie Albies' foul ball somehow came back to hit him on the head

Usually, when you hit a foul ball into the crowd, it stays there. It's out of play and the fan is not thinking about giving it back. Sometimes they'll even run all the way home after they catch it.

But during the Braves' 2-1 win over the Pirates on Wednesday, Ozzie Albies hit a foul ball that not only came back to him, but hit him square on the head:

ET? Is that you?

No, unfortunately, as you probably know, ET phoned and went home. He's not in Pittsburgh at a Braves-Pirates game. It was the backstop screen! Something that Kevin Kiermaier can probably relate to.
