We've heard about players getting hurt while sneezing (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1802931), while sleepwalking through a nightmare about spiders (http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Glenallen_Hill) and after kicking an iron bar stool (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1805849).
...
The details, from the Free Press (http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080626/SPORTS02/806260425/1050/SPORTS):
"It was the stupidest, most freakish thing," Inge said Wednesday, explaining why he had just been placed on the 15-day DL with the pulled side muscle (oblique) he suffered 3 1/2 weeks ago.<br>
"I have a 3-year-old son who sleeps in the bed with my wife and me," Inge said. "I was trying to push the pillow down behind his head (two nights ago), and when I did ... I repopped (the strained muscle).<br>
"You take swings in baseball, and it's not as bad as pushing a pillow down."
