Looks like a welt to me - do an image search for "paintball bruises"
I've never seen anyone get hit in the face with a baseball as the helmet and natural batters stance protect from that happening. I have seen people get punched in the jaw with similar results. The head bleeds a lot from superficial wounds.
I can authoritatively say that cops are trained to shoot for center mass/legs exclusively when firing LTL rounds. For whatever reason, this young lady took a round to the jaw. A weak punch to the jaw is enough to knock a person cold, thus ending the fight. Had this woman been hit in the legs or chest, I dont believe that she would have been incapacitated unless she decided to give up.
