VIDEO: Zobrist begins right-handed at-bat wearing lefty helmet

Something didn't look quite right when MLB All-Stars center fielder Ben Zobrist took his seventh inning at-bat against Samurai Japan on Saturday.
That's because the switch-hitter took the first three offerings from left-hander Minoru Iwata from the right side of the plate wearing the wrong helmet.
Zobrist appeared completely oblivious to the mistake until teammate Evan Longoria pointed out the mishap and provided him with the appropriate protection.
