[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3603320, member: 44288"] The baseball thing got me thinking. I really never had an incident myself but the I almost killed my coach. He bought a new double tire pitching machine to help with our batting. I was the first guinea pig. He loaded some baseballs and adjusted it to whatever the manual said was high school baseball pitching speed and I was crushing them. He then tried a few curve balls increasing one tire's speed and again I was whacking them. He thought he would get smart and cranked up both wheels to maximum speed and loaded a baseball. I saw him load it then a HISSS! and then a whump into the catcher's mitt all in about a second. I saw him grinning and then he loaded another ball. I was ready for this one and as soon as he loaded the ball I squared to bunt. That speeding ball hit the bat and reversed course right back into my coach's man parts. He doubled over in pain writhing on the ground spinning circles like Curly on the Three Stooges. Come to think of it, he was making high-pitched noises like Curly too. By the time the ambulance arrived his groin was swollen up to about grapefruit size. That next day in Ag Shop we were welding up a safety cage for the loader to stand behind. [/QUOTE]
