A Citi Field security guard was forced to leave a game on Wednesday afternoon … after he was drilled on the top of the head by a towering foul ball.
The scary moment just happened in the second inning of the Mets vs. Braves game in New York … when Atlanta catcher, Travis D’Arnaud, hit a pitch way into the air down the third-base line.

As the ball was coming down in foul ground, though, a security guard couldn’t track it — and it ended up plunking him.
The ball hit the man so hard, D’Arnaud visibly winced at the sight.
The guard rubbed his head and appeared to be dazed — and just seconds later, he left his post with a stadium official.
Unclear if he suffered significant injuries … we’ve reached out to the Mets for comment on the situation, but so far, no word back yet.
