“Lower body injury” doesn’t sound so bad now, does it?

By Mike Axisa

From the D-Backs’ official site: “[Catcher Chris] Snyder was hit by a foul ball off the bat of Milwaukee outfielder Corey Hart in the fourth inning. Snyder was diagnosed with a left testicular fracture and will have surgery on Wednesday.” And you thought what happened to Jose Molina the other day was bad.

i’m not sure i know what it means either, but i can’t read ‘left testicular fracture’ without wincing.

Count Zero says:

Like you…I think I am content to NOT know the details on that. Every conceivable explanation carries a haunting mental picture.

I…would…prefer…to never speak of this subject again.

It’s been a bad year for sensitive parts. Felix Pie had twisted testicles. Kaz Matsui had anal fissures. Ouch.

Curt Schilling almost went on the 15 day with a stick in his ass.

In a related story, Joba Chamberlain once challenged Lance Armstrong to a “Who has more testicles?” contest. Joba won by five.

Ben C says:

Lame, that’s a Chuck Norris joke.

You know they called that Jose Molina play a wild pitch?

Chris says:

I read the story quickly, and thought the lead in said “Call them the Arizona Brokebacks”….which conjures up a whole different image.

 
Joe says:

I just hope no one busts his balls about this injury. That would be a real low blow.

 
ceciguante says:

gives new meaning to “bust a nut.”

sorry, i had to.

 
Dylan says:

I almost fainted reading this.

 
BC says:

“Fractured left testicle operation.” What do they do during the operation? Get out the crazy glue?
