    I used to play football and suffered 15 concussions during my career. Back when I played they referred to concussions as "getting your bell rung" and coaches told us to get back on the field. I dealt with post concussion syndrome for years after and eventually suffered a stroke and developed epilepsy from the litany of traumatic brain injuries in my life.
    If Doctor Mike notices this I would love to talk to him about it.

    Another one you could have included is Tyler Colvin. He was on third base and a broken bat came flying toward him and the sharp end of the bat hit him in the chest. It caused his lung to collapse and came very close to being a fatal injury.

      As a Mets fan... that hurts. For both Harvey and Stras.
      The 'cure' for TOS involves removing a rib, which can lead to nerve damage and loss of feeling in the extremities, which is what happened to Stras, from the sound of it.
      A bunch of us fans looked it up when Harvey was diagnosed with it. TOS is the true pitcher killer. Like the recovery rate is abysmal.

    My sophomore year of highschool baseball I was hit in the face by a linedrive while pitching, it broke my zygomatic and orbital bones and later I would need surgery. That was probably the worst day of my life. Took months for me to recover and get cleared but I am still playing baseball going into my junior year. It truly is an amazing sport that evokes a lot of passion, and while it is quite dangerous, an injury will never change the love we have for the game.

My brother look ater went on and dislocated his shoulder in college. He did go back to football too early, and ended up jot being able to play football again.

    I was extremely active in multiple sports from elementary school up until my 20s. I suffered so many weird injuries, and had "unexplained" knee pain during my entire teens which, after watching this video, I now know what it was! But I think the weirdest injury I ever suffered was when I kicked a ball to defend the goal at the exact same moment as my teammate kicked to score a goal in practice together. We both fell down, the ball stayed in the same spot, and all the metatarsals in my foot were broken in half! Amazingly, I got up and just kept going and wasn't really even in any pain! I didn't even get an x-ray until a week later when my foot started bruising and my parents asked me if I dropped something on it. Will always be amazed that I had no pain, I broke other bones and those hurt a lot!

    What Mike mentioned about getting injured from a bad pitch being traumatic and making it so that you are too scared to get back in the batters box is very real. Happened to me in AAA little league. Got hit really badly in the chest, minor fracture to a rib and bad bruising. Only to recover and get hit with a pitch the next game I played after coming back. After that I would stand too far out and was constantly reprimanded because I was always needing to be told to move up. Finally I just said "I'm done, I am too scared of the ball at this point."

The horn of the saddle (the hard part at the front that Western saddles have to tie rope onto, I don't know equestrian stuff) dug into her face with all the weight of the horse on top of her and basically broke her face.

Bounced off the top of the fence and hit my nose didn’t bleed or break which was pretty incredible.

    Good job, Dr. Mike!🙂 Enjoyed your Medical Commentary about possible DX'S, while watching these Baseball game injuries.
    The diagrams of the bones, ligaments, etc. were very helpful, also!
    Also, your Empathy and Compassion for these injured players, came shining thru! 🙂

      My only baseball injury was in little league in Phoenix, AZ.
      I was jogging out to be the first base coach, was too close to the on-deck batter, and got hit in the forehead with a heartily-swung bat.
      Inch+ avulsion right in the center of my forehead, bled like that scene in Carrie.
      It didn't hurt at all until the ER doc jabbed the first needle in to apply Novocain before stitching.

    really neat to see you discuss Osgood-Schlatter injuries - When I was in 8th grade, i suffered a rather severe one playing for my school softball team and it resulted in a few of the tendon fibers causing minor avulsion fractures on my tibia. Doctors said the only thing they could do was tell me to rest it, so I've still got bone fragments shifting around in my knees causing issues to this day, more than 20 years later.

    I’m a gymnast/coach and we put so much emphasis on preventing head injuries and obviously stuff happens but we try to be really strict about safety falls which are intended to protect the head (and forward ones to protect the elbows). I’ve seen some scary falls, but luckily nothing actually bad but it can definitely be a dangerous sport (I’ve also seen some scorpions which is what we call it when your feet go over your head the wrong way but at least gymnasts tend to be more flexible than baseball players)

    My 16 year old nephew broke his humerus during the first game of the season this summer. He was just warming up, pitching back and forth with a reammate. It's called a thrower's break. He just finally got out of the brace. Can't play other sports until spring.
    Then last summer, same nephew, playing baseball, he tore all the ligaments and some tendons in the same shoulder and had to have extensive surgery and rehab
    The doc said he had never seen such a severe case. He even tore the tendon on one end of his bicep and they had to open his arm up to pull it back in place and reattach. He got over rehab at the end of February and then got the humerus break in June.

I remember Tony saunders the guy who broke his arm throwing the ball, watching that game live and hearing him screaming. He rehabbed and a year later tried to come back and he was in the minor leagues and did the same exact thing again and had to retire. The guy that got hit in the head with the batted ball, that also happened with the same exact two teams in the same exact ballpark except it was the rays pitcher the next time who got hit and it was honestly worse than the one that you saw in my opinion.
