not football, but i've endured my fair share of baseball injuries. tommy john surgery in the elbow and have also torn the labrum in my shoulder, broken bone in the shoulder, and moderate to severe tear of my rotator cuff in the same shoulder. if you notice, tommy john surgery has become pretty common for pitchers in the MLB.
if my 3 month old son comes to me in a few years and says he wants to pitch, i'm going out that night and buying a catchers mitt to catch him and will be damn proud to do so.
theres risk in everything you do. will i be nervous that this next pitch will be the one that causes him pain? probably, but i'm not going to deny him the fun he's had up until that point because I was afraid of what could possibly happen in the future
uh uh ah...Catchers get way too many concussions. Maybe an outfielders glove would be better.
