Yadier Molina catcher hit in nuts by baseball foul tip.
I hear he had to have emergency surgery afterwards.
It's funny how these announcers avoid stating the obvious.
Well, sometimes it's a penis hit, not a testicle hit.
So it isn't a sure thing other than a groinal strike. Sometimes it's both.
You do read about possible testicular torsion injuries. One ball player had so much problem they had to remove a testicle. Another had a testicle swell up a few hours after being hit to the size of a grapefruit, making them afraid he would lose that one but they managed to save it. Anyway, that's what was in that article I posted a link to above.
The players don't like to wear cups because they're less comfortable and they claim it can inhibit their natural range of motion during intense play. I can see their point but maybe that's just an argument for better cup designs. These guys aren't poor, they could afford custom cup sizes to fit them better.
Well, sometimes it's a penis hit, not a testicle hit.
Well, a penis fracture is probably worse than a testicle blow. Although it is doubtful these guys had an erection unless they REALLY like playing baseball.
