Garrett Jones fail

So add another one to the list of hilarious injuries suffered by MLB players.

Pirates first baseman Garrett Jones missed Saturday’s game against the Dodgers because he had food lodged in his throat.

Apparently, Jones was eating after the game and had trouble swallowing a piece of food on Friday night, and after experiencing pain in his chest the next morning, decided to go to the hospital.

There they were able to dislodge the food, but Jones had to sit the day’s game out, and was not even available to pinch hit.

So what we can learn from this is that Garrett Jones needs to learn how to chew his food, and the Pirates have taken getting hurt to a whole new level.
