  1. The Dodgers commentators killed me when they showed this.

    “Wow that blew up fast!”

    “Just like his outing”

  2. I was once hbp so hard the string on the ball cut my skin in a perfect little softball shape. Painful but still pretty cool.

  3. This happened to me in beer league before all the current rules about triple layer carbon fiber bats and lower cor balls. I’m sure guys were hitting balls 90+ with those bats. Playing infield was not safe. I was pitching.

    Anyway at the ER when the doc drained it they said if I was a few minutes later there’s a very high chance it would’ve clotted and I’d be dead via aneurysm.

    Looked just like this in the exact spot on my shin. 

  4. I still have a bump in my shin from where I took a comebacker over 20 years ago in HS. Squared me in the shin. Stung like a motherfucker. Blew up like a baseball sticking off the front of my shin.

  5. Anyone else feel dirty seeing a baseball players shin? I feel like someone in the 1800’s that just saw a woman’s ankle

  6. Shin injuries are no joke. I know a lot has been made about how vague the Astros are about Kyle Tucker’s injury, but they can take a very long time to heal. Unfortunately I speak from experience, I was in a car accident almost a year ago where my shin got whacked really hard and I’ve had almost no progress as far as healing.

  7. pretty much what Dean Kremer’s arm looked like the other day when he took a line drive to it

  8. Poor guy is having a rough season… Hopefully he turns it around in October. I really think he deserves success.

  9. This happened to me in the batting cage this January, same basic location on my leg as well. Took legitimately 3 months to heal.

  10. This reminds me of Bob Gibson in 1967. Two batters later the bone snapped. He was out for two months.
