I'm amazed no current MLB players have died from the shot yet. A few retired players, some still in their 40s, have died from it though. A few current Japanese players have died from the shot - they were in their 20s.
There have been several. Just not BIG names yet. There was a catcher from Tampa Bay and another minor leaguer. I don’t watch any longer but that is my recollection.
