In a shocking turn of events, former MLB star Sean Casey reportedly “completely tore his hamstring” during a recent game with the Savannah Bananas, according to a hilarious broadcaster.
The incident occurred during a routine play at first base, when Casey attempted to stretch for a throw from the infield. As he went down in a heap of pain, the broadcaster couldn’t help but add some comedic flair to the situation.
“Wow, folks, it looks like Sean Casey has completely torn his hamstring! I guess you could say he’s gone from being a ‘big league hitter’ to a ‘big limp sitter’!” the broadcaster quipped, as the crowd erupted in laughter.
Casey, known for his jovial personality during his playing days, took the injury in stride, joking with his teammates that he was now “more of a banana peel than a banana slugger.”
When asked about the injury after the game, Casey responded with his trademark humor, saying, “Well, I guess you could say I really ‘split’ on that play! Looks like I’ll be taking a ‘peel’ day tomorrow.”
Teammates and fans alike couldn’t help but chuckle at Casey’s lighthearted attitude towards the injury, with one fan even shouting from the stands, “Hey Casey, looks like you’ll be going ‘bananas’ for a while!”
As Casey hobbled off the field with the help of the team’s trainer, he assured everyone that he would be back on the field in no time, ready to continue entertaining fans with his antics both on and off the field.
So, while the injury may have put a temporary halt to Casey’s playing career, it’s clear that his sense of humor remains intact. And who knows, maybe he’ll even find a new calling as the team’s official “hamstring comedian.”
