Left handed college pitchers may be more at risk for injury

This study shows that left handed college pitchers may be more at risk for injury than right handed ptichers through the measurement of biomechanical parameters.

Interesting fact :  left handed people make up 10% of the population while left handed pitchers make up 30% of the pitching staffs in Major League and Division I college baseball.  Not surprising but interesting stat.  That's why I tell me wife if our son is left handed to put a ball in hand straight away!

Here the abstract to the study in The American Journal of Sports Medicine
