MLB Injuries

Odds & News | CPRC ( Mon 6th, July 2009 )

Baseball may not be considered a full-contact sport, that is not as high-impact as football. However there are still a surprising number of injuries from head to toe.

Baseball injuries are generally classified as acute (traumatic) or chronic (cumulative, or due to overuse). Overuse injuries commonly develop over time, the stress on muscles, joints and soft tissues without rest for the healing and restoration.

Traumatic injuries occur instantaneously due to the force or sudden impact. Sprains, muscle pulls, broken bones and concussions are all natural hazards of the game. Because baseball requires a lot of batting, swinging and catching the ball, most of the injuries affect the upper body.

Notwithstanding all these risks of injuries, baseball is the favorite sport of America!

Some tips the can help avoid injury

• To avoid overuse injuries, do not exceed 80 to 100 pitches in a game or 30 to 40 pitches in a practice.
• Always warm up muscles and properly stretch, prior to play. Equipment should fit properly and be worn correctly.
• Wear proper protection, including a batting helmet.
• Be certain the playing area is free of debris.
• Catchers require a helmet with facial protection, as well as padding for the throat and chest.
• Wear properly fitting, cleated footwear.
