Brandon Inge angles for a lucrative pillow endorsement

By 'Duk

We've heard about players getting hurt while sneezing, while sleepwalking through a nightmare about spiders and after kicking an iron bar stool. But we had never heard of a pillow-lifting injury in baseball — that is, until Detroit Tigers' everyman Brandon Inge reported an overstuffed owie on Wednesday, earning a feather-paved (and probably overdue) path to the injury list.
The details, from the Free Press:

"It was the stupidest, most freakish thing," Inge said Wednesday, explaining why he had just been placed on the 15-day DL with the pulled side muscle (oblique) he suffered 3 1/2 weeks ago.

"I have a 3-year-old son who sleeps in the bed with my wife and me," Inge said. "I was trying to push the pillow down behind his head (two nights ago), and when I did ... I repopped (the strained muscle).

"You take swings in baseball, and it's not as bad as pushing a pillow down."

Upon hearing this story, manager Jim Leyland said, "That's a first."

It definitely is a first, but I think anyone who's getting up there in age — like myself and Mr. Inge — can relate to feeling a little pain in the obliques or lower back when doing random things.
Heck, while formatting this blog, I threw my back out three different times. I'm guessing a few people probably did while reading it, too. It's a dangerous world out there.

Sure Brandon, blame the kid.

Unless that pillow also had a couple of coke cans, what a pussy.

Occassionally, I get injured when humping my pillow. Leaves a nasty burn. A little ointment and you're back in action in no time.

Tell me about it. You'd think I would have learned my lesson by now, but that damn pillow is such a cock tease.

I hear ya. Those, "come hump me" looks it gives you can be quite persuasive.

He has a 3-year old that sleeps with him and his wife... I hope that's not an every night thing.

It's just so soft to the touch. I can't help myself.
