How to stop bleeding. 547 comments


With this two-run home run by Nomar Mazara, the Rangers took what is called a "lead,” meaning they had more runs than the opposing team had at the time. According to Major League Baseball rule 7.01 (g) (4.11), the team with the most runs when the game ends is declared the “winner,” which happened last night to the Texas Rangers.

How to stop bleeding, presented as a public service:

  1. Apply direct pressure on the cut or wound with a clean cloth, tissue, or piece of gauze until bleeding stops, which is usually caused by a cut, a puncture or by pitch number sixty-three in the second inning.
  2. If blood soaks through the material, don’t remove it. There is no material in the bullpen to help the bleeding stop, so what’s the point?
  3. If the wound is on the arm or leg, but most likely the arm attached to the person wearing a Texas Rangers uniform standing on a small mound-shaped rise in the middle of a field, raise the limb above the heart, if possible, to help slow bleeding. Under no circumstance are you to use the Lohse method of blood flow stoppage. Patient may experience instant death or the longing of.
  4. Wash your hands again after giving first aid and before cleaning and dressing the wound. After all, when you shake your opponent’s hand after the game and say, “great victory,” it is polite to do that with clean hands.
  5. Do not apply a tourniquet unless the bleeding is severe and not stopped with direct pressure. And do not seek help from inside sources like your minor league system. There is no help there. There hasn’t been in years. There may never be.
  6. Pitch Cole Hamels, who has the only two Rangers wins since the All-Star break and seems to be the only chance the Rangers have to win a game from here on out, and who got the victory in what was probably the most important game of the season for the Rangers, who are in hyper fall and desperately needed a win last night.
  7. If bleeding persists, consult a physician, or the general manager of  the Chicago White Sox. They have an on-staff expert on cuts.
