Top 10 silly baseball injuries

In honor of Angels 1B Kendry Morales breaking his leg on a walk off home run. Here is a list I've compiled of my favorite baseball injuries in the last 20 years.
1.) Former Expos pitcher Jeff Juden actually missed a start because a tattoo he got prior to the season opener got infected.
2.) Long ago Marlins utility infielder Bret Barberie missed a game because he mistakenly rubbed chili juice in his eyes.
3.) Brewers slugger Richie Sexson missed time during spring training with migraine headaches. He was wearing a cap that was too small for his large head.
4.) Then Padres pitcher Adam Eaton stabbed himself in the stomach as he was using a knife to open a DVD.
5.) Hall of Famer Rickey Henderson allegedly missed several games one August due to frostbite.
6.) Former Twins OF Marty Cordova missed a game after he burned his face, spending too much time under a tanning lamp.
7.) One time Mets and Giants star Kevin Mitchell was supposedly hurt by a microwaved donut. Eating this allegedly led to his needing a root canal.
8.) Braves legend John Smoltz burned his chest while ironing the shirt he was wearing.
9.) Red Sox and Yankees Hall of Famer Wade Boggs hurt his back putting on his cowboy boots.
10.) Rangers pitcher Rich Harden, while in Oakland with the A's, strained his shoulder turning off his alarm clock.

Seems like basketball is the new "worst injury" sport. Accidentally saw that Josuf Nurkic injury- between that and Ahrens (MSU) a couple weeks ago that is 2 more sideways ankles than I'd ever like to see.

Caris Lavert did the same this year, Gordon Hayward last year. Disgusting leg injuries every few months it seems.

Used to just be a severe roll playing ball but now the ankles snap. Football guys are picking up Achilles injuries in that area too.
