Excellent diagnostics

Amazing... a catcher takes a direct hit from a baseball in the forehead, is "dazed and stunned", is later suffering from headaches, and this is a repeat of a similar incident from last year in which he did suffer a concussion, yet the coach states:
"He’s hurting right now. He took quite a shot. He’s fortunate he didn’t get a concussion. He has swollen eyes and some severe headaches."

This high-school baseball coach is clearly unable to accurately identify symptoms and severity of concussion, as headache clearly means something.
