Atlanta Braves starter Sean Newcomb left his team's home game on Saturday in a scary scene after being hit in the back of the head by a line drive off the bat of Philadelphia’s J.T. Realmuto.

Newcomb was checked by a trainer and walked off the field under his own power in Atlanta, escorted by two trainers on Saturday.

The ball was clocked at 102 mph and caromed off Newcomb’s head and sailed into the netting behind the Phillies’ dugout on the third base side. 

Realmuto covered his mouth with both hands as he ran to first base on what went as a ground-rule double.

The play occurred in the third inning at SunTrust Park. 

Newcomb turned his head as the ball approached and knelt on the mound immediately after getting hit. 

Catcher Tyler Flowers had him stay down while a trainer and Braves manager Brian Snitker came out to tend to the left-hander.

Touki Toussaint took Newcomb’s spot.

Newcomb reportedly slept fine despite having a bump on his head and a stiff neck, according to MLB.com.

Braves training staff immediately raced to the mound to make sure Newcomb was okay

Newcomb said he did not experience any concussion-related symptoms

"Caught me in the back of the head, but pitching-wise I felt pretty good about what I was doing out there."
