A Rash Of Stupid Baseball Injuries - Including My Own

Kendry Morales breaks his leg after a walk-off grand slam.

Mike Pelfry gets hurt in his sleep.

Chris Coghlan’s pie injury.

Russell Branyan stubbed his toe closing the curtains.

Geoff Blum hurt himself putting on a shirt.

Mat Latos earned a trip to the DL holding back a sneeze.

Luke Scott pulls his hamstring rounding first on a homerun.

Stephen Douglas breaks his wrist celebrating a 10 RBI game. No link for this one since it happened 15 years ago. I was 12 years old and had graduated from 6th grade earlier in the day. The game was my final regular season Little League game. During the game I drove in 10 runs and hit a grand slam. Needless to say, I was flying pretty high that day. When the game finished and my friends and I were walking back to the parking lot and I jumped up to swing from the goal post like we always did. Well, my hands slipped and I fell backwards. It was a clean break of my right wrist. No All-Stars for young Stephen. I spent the summer in a cast. The only positive was that I was forced to use my left hand to dribble and shoot. Now I’m a blogger.
