Edgar Gonzalez was hit in the head with a pitch in the sixth inning of San Diego's win over Colorado on Saturday.

"I saw the ball ricochet and it's a scary thing," Padres starter Kevin Correia said. "Being a pitcher, it's scary for you and it's scary for the hitter."

Gonzalez fell to the ground after he was hit by Jason Hammel's 93 mph fastball. After several minutes, Gonzalez was helped to a cart by the team's trainers and driven off the field.

Gonzalez was "conscious, he was lucid and he knew what happened. But he was extremely dizzy and his ears were ringing," according to manager Bud Black.

He went to the hospital for tests, and the results won't be known until Sunday afternoon.

"It's something you don't want to see happen," Hammel said. "I hope he's all right. I'll be checking in on him. I was effectively wild and, unfortunately, effectively wild was dangerous."
