Could a MLB pitcher be charged with assault if he intentionally hits a batter in the head/face and injures him and would the batter be criticized for pressing charges?

It adds nothing to the discussion, but who was the hockey player charged with assault for the guy he high-sticked and put in the hospital?
Todd Bertuzzi? But I don't think a high-stick was involved with his incident.
I thought he got the high stick into the guy's face? My memory is foggy anyway. I'll google it.
EDIT: McSorley vs. Brashear, where McSorley hit Brashear with his stick. McSorley didn't end up getting formally charged though.
Bertuzzi vs Moore.
Dino Ciccarelli went to jail briefly for an incident on ice (no injury).
