I love the game of baseball. It’s actually much faster paced than most give it credit for. Between every pitch are dozens of small decisions and observations being made by players and coaches of both teams.

While I love the game, it’s not necessarily home to some of the greatest athletes around.

Sure, there are some great athletes who play it, but I’d say the common denominator between the players is their skills, not necessarily their athleticism.

As such, baseball has been home to some of the most bizarre and ridiculous injuries of any sport around. In fact, it’s famous for it.

Sports Illustrated has done a good job of compiling some of the best MLB injuries in recent memory. Enjoy.
