Mets pitcher Ramon Ramirez injured celebrating Johan Santana’s no-hitter

Found June 02, 2012 on Larry Brown Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Ramon Ramirez,  Johan Santana,  Elvin Ramirez
TEAMS: New York Mets

From Larry Brown Sports:

It was a night of celebration at Citi Field after Johan Santana notched the Mets' first-ever no-hitter on Friday. Santana's teammates were so eager to congratulate him, one strained his hamstring sprinting in from the bullpen to join the celebration.

Yup, reliever Ramon Ramirez injured his hamstring and is headed to the disabled list.

"He was just running in. He hadn't even gotten to the pile where they were jumping on [Santana]," manager Terry Collins said. "He was just so excited. He was running in, running hard and all of a sudden, his leg grabbed him. I've never seen that."

What a bummer, huh? Even Brian McCann thinks that's a weird way to get hurt. Surprisingly, athletes getting injured during celebrations is fairly common. Here is a full list of athletes who have been hurt during celebrations.

  • I guess the Muts thought tcrete some morhey had to easy, so needed to create some more difficulties for themselves... On the other hand, the other New York team (aka Yankees) are more used to winning, so don't tend to injure themselves as much in the celebrations...

Alright, so I don’t have any real historical evidence that proves Mets fans traditional ruin great moments but when Johan Santana completed the first no-hitter in the 50 year history of the New York Mets the celebration was somewhat overshadowed by a jean shorts wearing fan that ran onto the field.
