Editorial Commentary: Pitching Should Come With a Warning Label

Arthroscopy. 2016 Aug;32(8):1569-70. doi: 10.1016/j.arthro.2016.06.001.

Abstract

Pitching is not without risk of overuse injuries. Pitch counts have been instituted to reduce the risk, but Riff et al.'s article clearly demonstrates that as pitchers get older they do not adhere to these counts, which increases the risk of injury.
