Top 10 | Bizarre baseball injuries of the past decade

This Spring Training has only reinforced the idea that baseball players are typically the victims of the most bizarre injuries to ever afflict athletes. Just before the Reds opened camp, Ken Griffey, Jr. revealed he broke his left hand in December while wrestling his children on his family's yacht during a vacation in the Bahamas. Meanwhile, Kerry Wood missed a few days of Spring Training after slipping in his hot tub, causing him to bruise his ribs. But as these ailments are hardly the most peculiar injuries baseball has seen, here is a look at the 10 strangest ailments to afflict America's pastime over the past decade (with a couple recollections from a Yankee fan):
10. Matt Mantei cuts himself on a can of dog food: While recovering from reconstructive elbow surgery in February 2002, Mantei punctured his thumb while opening a can of dog food. The gash, which required four stitches, did not directly impact the Diamondback reliever's recovery, which kept him out of action until June 28 and limited him to 31 appearances that season.
9. Adam Eaton stabs himself trying to open a DVD: In 2001, while using a pocket knife his grandfather gave him to open a package containing the DVDs of "Backdraft" and "Happy Gilmore," Eaton, then pitching for the Padres, stabbed himself in the abdomen, forcing him to miss his next start. The eight-year veteran has apparently regained top form, as he signed a three-year, $24.5 million contract with the Phillies in the offseason.

Walter Reed patients told to keep quiet

This is reported in the Army Times!

Soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center’s Medical Hold Unit say they have been told they will wake up at 6 a.m. every morning and have their rooms ready for inspection at 7 a.m., and that they must not speak to the media.
“Some soldiers believe this is a form of punishment for the trouble soldiers caused by talking to the media,” one Medical Hold Unit soldier said, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
It is unusual for soldiers to have daily inspections after Basic Training.
Soldiers say their sergeant major gathered troops at 6 p.m. Monday to tell them they must follow their chain of command when asking for help with their medical evaluation paperwork, or when they spot mold, mice or other problems in their quarters.
