I know it may be hard to accept, rip, but you are not a young man anymore. (Isn't the big 5-0 just around the corner?) Research has shown that it is not just the fairer gender that may need to take Calcium and Vitamin D supplements to maintain good bone health. As one well past his first half century of life, I am paying much closer attention to taking care of this mortal shell!

It's a recreational league in Howard County, Maryland. I was playing First. Batter hit a line drive with wicked topspin just to my right. I pivoted and stepped in front of it, stabbed across and downwards with my mitt but couldn't move fast enough as the ball sliced down and under my mitt ... impact on the left side of the tibia, about an inch above the ankle. "Just a minor greenstick..." eh. important bit: Kept the ball in front of me. Got back to first with it before the batter. Prevented the run. The center-right fielder asked if she could get me some ice. rip On Tue, Oct 4, 2011 at 10:26, <[email protected]> wrote: > Good morning Richard, > > What is the story with the baseball injury?
