MLB : Scary Injuries

The way I see it is that being employed as a medic for a sports team doesn't necessarily mean you have to be a fan of that team (or even sport)...you're there to work, not watch the game (if you enjoy it, that's just a bonus). Once your services are needed, any team allegiance goes out the window and you're in work mode.

[@taylorwoods8001]

pitchers should wear a special lightweight helmet that can seriously reduce impact, those balls are coming way faster off the bat than they are off the arm

[@jeffcarroll1990shock]

They'll never do it. A large number of professional pitchers would refuse to wear them claiming it messes up their aim. Trying to enforce it would lead to a massive walkout and holding major games hostage.

Little league teams are required to wear masks from pitcher to fielders... if they can see the danger ... why can't MLB follow their example of safety! Train with the equipment 🎉 no excuses except pride. And pride isnt worth a life or a life with disabilities 😮❤

[@leanneu9293]

Pitchers need a helmet or something. During a cricket match in Australia, a batsman (who was wearing a helmet) was hit in the head below where the helmet ended, it was just the wrong spot. He was taken to hospital and a few days later he died. No one thought it would ever happen, but it did. Helmets are now designed a little differently, they finish lower and offer more protection. Pitcher’s have absolutely no protection, just their reflexes and a glove. When a ball is hit back at head height there is no where to go. I fear the day a pitcher is hit in just the wrong spot and it doesn’t end well.

[@corbinselanne7990]

The incident between Chase Utley and Ruben Tejada in Game 2, plus a less painful moment between Toronto and Texas in Game 5 of that same year's ALDS, led to two separate major incidents in May 2016 games; the Mets-Dodgers series saw Noah Syndergaard tossed for throwing at Utley (to which umpire Tom Hallion said his butt was "in the jackpot"), while the Toronto-Texas series saw Jose Bautista (the culprit of the moment in the ALDS) instigate a brawl via the same kind of slide that Utley hit Tejada with (in which Jose took a good right-handed punch to the face).

[@PSYCHOV3N0M]

31:15 What's up with that random fall on the left side near the dugout?? 🤣🤣🤣

[@JoshD777]

[@gmats_23]

Adam Greenberg suffered a compound skull fracture at this first at bat in 2005 that left him disabled for years. Then in 2012 an online petition was started for him to have one more ‘at bat’. The Marlins signed him for a one day contract and he did.

[@2-Hands]

I wish that they redesign the Baseball Helmets with a Clear plastic cover or Faceshield like the 1970's Motorcycle Helmets so they don't hit in the Face area. I seen in my younger years playing pee-wee Baseball kids BADLY Hurt and we need to protect all that play this game.

[@christopherkimber7679]

That Saunders injury gets me everytime I see it. I have to look away. The way his arm just flops is horrifying. And the posey collision I can’t do either. I sprained my ankle when I was a kid, and it almost knocked my bone off the growth plate. I broke it years later and still remember that the sprain was worse than the break. Sprain: crutches for 3 months. Broken: crutches for 2 days, walking cast for 3 months. So leg and feet injuries I can’t handle. I do miss collisions at home plate though. Easily was one of the best parts of baseball back in the day.

[@crazyman7671]

I really hate when some of these get hit the pitcher just stands there like "😐um...ok whatever 🤷‍♂️" like they feel like they gotta save face. But to me, acting like a cocky jerk after an accident doesnt do it. It makes it worse for the pitcher. Cause now they see your real character. Like at 21:20 the pitcher just pisses me off
