[My DD pitched 5 to 7 games during a day several times. She is 30 YOA, and she doesn't complain about the pain. But she can't sleep on her right side because her shoulder hurts too much. Her long head tendon has been so stretched that she can grab it with her left hand and move it around.
This might seem like a silly question to ask. Considering her current pain / discomfort, if she had it to do over, would she have still pitched 5-7 games in a day?
Between my senior year in HS and Freshman year of college I lost 8 mph off my fastball. I am convinced I threw too many complete games in HS. Now I have arthritis in my shoulder (doc says I had a scarring from a small tear in the rotator cuff that was never treated) and have similar trouble sleeping on my left side. I can still throw well enough to play with my kids. Still not sure I would have changed a thing.
