I'm not sure which is more terrifying to watch: the batter getting hit in the head by a pitch, or a pitcher getting a return in the head.

[@BaseballBros24]

I think it’s scarier watching a comebacker to the pitcher because it can come off the bat faster and they don’t see it coming nor have a helmet. That stuff can kill you if it hits the right spot.

Pitcher

[@jacksonmaine9765]

Baseball off bat, they regularly hit off the bat at 120 mph. Fastest pitch ever was 105

[@PandaGMD]

Comebackers, no questions asked. The pitchers don’t have helmets and the ball velocity off the bat is often faster than the pitch itself.

[@games4us132]

or catcher getting hit in the groin

[@seandobson6221]

How in blue hell do we have so many professional outfielders smashing into each other like the bad news bears? You call it in the air. If your left or right field and it’s shading towards center you backup center. That’s baseball 101. You can’t have injury videos without Nolan Ryan catching one in the face by Bo Jackson and pitching the rest of the game bleeding all,over his Jersey and picks up the win.

[@MegaRussell12]

Loud stadiums, fans also yelling “ball” to throw off outfielders.

[@Cheese178]

It isn’t as easy as you think. I’m a outfielder and baseball, the crowds make it hard to hear.

[@Cheese178]

And if it’s a high pop up, is it still our job to back up center or go to see if I can catch it

[@user-gb1if9or7n]

Looking for the ball and not at your teammates

[@jonnyb1021]

Dude you wouldn’t catch a fly ball hit right at you in a stadium with no one in it. 🤡🤡🤡

[@ericschminke8233]

Three that were really scary were when Gil Macdougald hit a line drive that hit Herb Score in the right eye. Score had to be carried off the field on a stretcher and taken to a hospital. The collision between the 3 Brewers players reminded me of the collision between Jack Heidemann, Vada Pinson, and John Lowenstein that occurred in 1971. All 3 had to be taken to a hospital. The scariest I've ever heard of occurred in 1970 when Al Kaline collided with Jim Northrup. Kaline nearly swallowed his tongue and almost died.

[@PhilAndersonOutside]

When I was a boy there was a fastball from Oil Can Boyd that hit Don Slaught in the face, broke his cheekbone and nose. It was downright frightening. This was in the day when batting helmets with ear covers were not required, and rarely worn. I remember the TV announcer saying they would only show the replay once, and to this day I have not seen it again.

[@james64ibm]

Being a pitcher is like sitting 150 yds out on a driving range - you're technically not the target for anyone, but it does need much of a deviation to hit you.

[@EnhancedPsyche]

Ok, so, it kinda sucks that it’s the same clips as many other videos, BUT, that only means that there are only a few injuries that need highlighting. So, I’d say it’s an even toss up.

[@thecrowpit24]

Ken Griffey Jr: "Am I nothing to you?"

[@user-ml9ur8rs8d]

The late Cincinnati Reds pitcher Frank Pastory (sp?) while pitching in a game got a line drive hit back to him that broke his elbow and ended his career. I've seen several videos like this but not one showing that play. I don't remember who the Reds were playing but it was in Riverfront Stadium and I remember seeing it on tv.

[@JohnDoe-fb1uk]

All of these added together don't even come close to what Dickie Thon went through.

[@phantomf4747]

Dravecky------Ok your stomach just turned replaying that in your mind.

[@MrDave5259]

Whenever I see a batter hit in the head, all I can think of is Tony C getting hit, breaking his cheek bone and eye socket. Saw him in a game against the Seaators in his last season. He never got over that injury.

[@chriszapfe37]

It’s a bird. It’s a plane. It’s Souza

[@cranbers]

1:27 I bet he forgot to wear his cup that day... Brutal...

[@shawnna1398]

6:04 heard that bang from the camera that’s how hard he hit the wall

[@brianshiffler7256]

Worst injuries ever? What about Lenny Dykstra & Mookie Wilson colliding in ‘86?

[@cranbers]

I don't think i've seen outfielders hit each other like that since I was 9 in little league. Aren't they supposed to call it as their running? And trust each other?

[@miamidolphinsfan]

No Stanton hit in Milwaukee clip?

[@SimonFoster23111971]

You left out: Ray Chapman Doc Powers Jim Creighton Herb Score Tony Conigliaro

[@rbfishcs123]

Add.. Steve McDuff Hugh Rayson Tony Lounders Scotty MacElroy

[@user-co2fc2sd7o]

Or the slide that changed the catcher blocking home plate rule? The player that got hurt and was the cause for the rule change played in the Nationals Organization

[@SimonFoster23111971]

You forgot the part where Posey gave Cousins a clear running lane - but Cousins still decided to try to end Posey's career - and STILL hasn't apologised for doing it.

[@user-os4qy3gg5k]

Love the vid

[@NRPrime23]

The Cubs can make injuries to others but also to themselves 💀

[@stevemarsh5347]

No Charlie Culberson? He took one straight to the face.

[@Rick-mg1nv]

I've seen worse MLB injuries than these

[@charliemorales4389]

Call it. That is first you know 👍

[@raulorozco2115]

What the fuck's Izuro "Kamikaze" Tanaka playing in right field for the Nats?

[@cranbers]

Do you not have to wear a cup in baseball? One would think that's a good idea when there is a small hard ball and people can throw it and batt it at 100+ mph.

[@amandafoster8945]

They wear cups but that only protects the family jewels so much. Still hurts to get hit there 😂

[@JustVisiting]

Tis’ but a scratch

[@bryankotsch]

Comebackers can be career enders.

[@tiffanytulloch4458]

Sorry for a catcher sitting that close and not expect a bat in the head......well dang gave a batter some space.....

[@blitzaxis]

Studid game

[@Urbroski10]

I had a bad injury, a baseball smacked me in the lip and my lip was gushing blood.

[@kenwoodbury1888]

I hate to criticize a youngster, which you obviously must be. When you are going to do a story, a historical one, you should do more research. There were many injuries far worse than those that you pointed out. Two that come to mind right off the bat are Ray Fosse and Tony Conigliaro. TC was headed for greatness when a beaning fractured his cheekbone. TC was destined for greatness until that moment. Also being a Cardinals fan I realize that if not for this, the Red Sox may well have won the 67 World Series.

[@obamaedits13]

e

[@mitchelxo]

all so dramatic 😂 come play some hockey boys you’ll all be out for the season first game

[@alblar7904]

why baseball players take a knee? do americans love drama that much?

[@becky7556]

Not the worst not even close lol you wasted my time 🤷 what about Puckett not one time did you mention PUCKETT the most devastating injury in history lol the dude lost his eye after taking a fastball to his face right in his eye he never played baseball again he started memory problems sezers and eventually died 5 or 10 years after his injury from complications from the injury

[@SimonFoster23111971]

He didn't lose an eye to the injury. Jaw was broken in 95 by a Dennis Martinez fastball. Diagnosed with glaucoma after losing vision in his eye the final morning of Spring Training in 96 (he batted .344 in Spring Training that year) Officially retired 12 July 96. Official Cause of Death: cerebral haemorrhage due to hypertension.
