MLB Players That ALMOST Died On The Field..

Spread The Viralist

Welcome back to Sports Paradise, today on the channel we are going to talk about the Baseball players who almost died. In the sports world, injuries are an inevitability. Be it a nagging backache or a broken bone, people are going to get hurt. It’s just a fact. Yet, while some players recover on time or even ahead of schedule, some are not so lucky. If these injuries are suffered by players who were doing well up until getting hurt, the fans feel a unique type of great disappointment, almost living vicariously through said injured player in doing so. In baseball, let’s not forget that Minnesota Twins first baseman Justin Morneau still doesn’t seem to have recovered from the concussion that prematurely ended his 2010 season. As a result, his team underachieved last year. Today, we will see the major injuries of baseball players and some almost caused their lives.

Bo Jackson. Over a four-year span playing for KC, from 1987-1990, Jackson hit 107 home runs with 304 RBI. He was only in his mid-to-late 20s at this point, so he easily had a shot at becoming a top outfielder. However, being a two-sport athlete a la Deion Sanders caught up with Jackson as in the 1990 NFL playoffs, he was tackled and dislocated his hip. This ended his football career and once he returned to baseball, he was not the same electrifying player he once was. He retired in 1994, having hit just 32 home runs the previous four seasons.
I’m not saying that he shouldn’t have played pro football, but I think it’s pretty obvious that Jackson could have been someone special had he stuck with baseball full-time. Finish this video for more Baseball players who almost died.
