We welcome sports medicine orthopedist and researcher Dr. Peter Kriz to the latest podcast for an in-depth look at how showcase participation relates to injury rates in pitchers. This conversation draws heavily from Dr. Kriz’s two landmark studies on the topic, and yields some crucial insights to help players, parents, and coaches plan for safe long-term development of pitchers. We also chat about the diagnosis and treatment spondylolysis (stress fractures) of the lower back in extension/rotation sport athletes.
