Quick: Someone get Marco Scutaro an "I got hit in the head with a 95 MPH Stephen Strasburg fastball and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" t-shirt. Scary stuff. Thankfully, Scutaro walked off the field on his own...
"You think about it for a second and you hope that he’s okay. But once I saw him walk off, I figured he’d be okay. ...It happens. It’s part of baseball. You try and get in. Obviously you never want to hit a guy in the head, but it happens. You’ve just got to go out there and keep trying to pound the strike zone."

Is there a problem with the aspect ratio in the first pic? SS looks like some sort of dwarf.

Its not an aspect ratio issue. The camera is set up so that the pitcher on the mound and the batter look the same size. In the first picture Stras has walked off the mound and is standing in front of it breaking the prespective illusion created by the camera.
