Black-eye Jon

Black-eye Jon, originally uploaded by Michael Saffle.

My friend Jon was hit with a softball yesterday during a game. We call this type of injury a "black-eye" or a "shiner."

Example sentence:

"Can you get me a bag of ice? The ball hit me in my face and I think I might have a shiner tomorrow."

or

"I'll give you a black-eye if you don't stop telling people I stole your CD."
