beaning
Skull-striking wild throw
Beaning is hitting someone in the head with a thrown object, especially a baseball.
A pitcher who beans a batter—whether intentionally or not—risks ejection and retaliation.
The term extends beyond baseball to any deliberate headshot: He got beaned with a snowball.
