You never know what's going to happen when these college baseball teams collide. At least moving forward, that will be the case. In the video, you're watching a game between two Texas college baseball teams, Weatherford College and North Central Texas College.

What makes this video special occurs when Josh Phillips gets speared after hitting a home run off of Owen Woodward. Wow, you don't see that every day. I bet Josh Phillips keeps his eye on the pitcher after every future homer. Keep your eye on the ball? How about keep your eye on the pitcher! Check out the video below to hear the immediate reaction at the ballpark.
