Didn't see anything happen. No reaction or limp or anything. I'm guessing the injury occurred later, up in the club on the dance floor.

Does she tear her meniscus in the next video.

If it had been the Washington Redskins' new QB Jayden Daniels, this would be a story.

Otherwise, nah.

Sheeeesh. Someone warn somebody next time. That looked horrific - made me cringe. I could almost hear it coming apart. Sounded like chicken bones being torn apart in the bathtub under water. My gosh how did she even walk after that, much less smile? Her pain threshold must be enormous. God bless the precious little thing. Let's hope the surgeons can put her back together and not have to amputate. And let's hope they do amputate Larry's shitty choice of stories on this once magnificent website. Frickin' Larry posting that crapola to the news feed. WTF

Coach's fault. Should've pulled her before that first pitch.
