Baseball lore is replete with stories of strange injuries and odd trips to the disabled list, but it's hard to top what Giants' Keiichi Yabu did to himself Saturday.
Yabu sustained scratches to both corneas when an exercise band snapped off and struck him in the face.
"The right-hander travels with a stretching device that hooks onto the shelf of his locker. He was doing arm exercises when the hook snapped loose. "The band came right back at him," Bochy deadpanned"
Yabu takes the bands with him on the road and are not part of the Giants' workout program. (I like the clarification on that! lol)
Okay. I feel a little guilty for laughing....owww!
News states he will be fine :)
