Bay slid head-first into the plate and he got spiked on his left hand just as his hand was on the plate. On the post-game interview, you can see blood stains on the left side of his jersey.

I do feel happy for Bay, a very good player who has had to play in Pittsburgh for so long going nowhere. As much as I don't want the Red Sox to win it all again this year, I'm glad to see Jason Bay get some recognition besides being the token Pirate at the All-Star Game every year.
