How do you get this injury

[DenverChief]

playing baseball?

They (The Astros) hope the return of offseason acquisition Kazuo Matsui can help turn things around. The second baseman, who had a career year last season with the Rockies, made his season debut against his former club after missing the first 16 games of the year recovering from surgery to repair an anal fissure. He was 0-for-3 with two walks and a run.

Roid rage and baseball bats are a tragic combination.

[DaFace]

I don't know, but it doesn't sound like something I'd like to deal with, that's for sure!

Getting your leg stuck behind you while sliding feet first?

metal spike in the ass would do it...but I'm guessing it's more of a coach applied to player problem than it is a base sliding problem

Ouch.

An anal fissure is an unnatural crack or tear in the anus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anus) skin. As a fissure, these tiny tears may show as bright red rectal bleeding and cause severe periodic pain after defecation.<sup id="cite_ref-new_0-0" class="reference">[1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anal_fissure#cite_note-new-0)</sup> The tear usually extends from the anal opening and located posteriorly in the midline. This location is probably because of the relatively unsupported nature of the anal wall in that location.

Most anal fissures are caused by stretching of the anal mucosa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucosa) beyond its capability. Many acute anal fissures will heal spontaneously. Some fissures become chronic and will not heal. The most common cause for this is spasm of the internal anal sphincter muscle. This spasm causes poor blood flow to the anal mucosa, hence producing an ulcer which does not heal since it is deprived of normal blood supply.
Anal fissures are common in women after childbirth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childbirth)<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference">[2] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anal_fissure#cite_note-1)</sup>; following excessive anal intercourse; after difficult bowel movements; and in infants following constipation.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference">[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anal_fissure#cite_note-2)</sup>

It's probably their version of an ACL injury.
