Karma

You might remember that earlier this season Cubs catcher Michael Barrett sucker punched White Sox catcher AJ Pierzynski in the face.

Michael Barrett was placed on the 15-day disabled list Sunday with an intrascrotal hematoma.
Barrett was injured in the fifth inning on Saturday when he was hit in the groin by a ball. Barrett stayed in the game, and even hit in the Cubs' fifth, but had to leave because of the pain.
"That's a tough one there -- that one might be the toughest one," Cubs manager Dusty Baker said. "He said, 'Bake, I'm feeling sick, I'm hurting badly.' He tried to tough it out."
Barrett was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital Saturday, and an ultrasound revealed the injury. He then underwent surgery to stop internal bleeding IN HIS SCROTUM, Cubs athletic trainer Mark O'Neal said.
