Pete Fairbanks, Rays reliever, earns the Injury of the Year award again for a quirky cut on his finger sustained while opening a bottle of spring water.
Following his quirky tradition of injuries, Fairbanks is recognized not just for creativity in injury but also for achieving this milestone two years in a row.
The competition for the Strange But True Injury of the Year was intense enough that tiebreakers were necessary to crown a winner, emphasizing the uniqueness of Fairbanks' incidents.
Fairbanks' last year's injury occurred while he was still on the injured list; this year's incident again highlights his unusual methods of enduring injuries.
