With spring training in full swing, it’s a great time to remember that Diamond’s jockstraps and athletic cups work for all athletes, including baseball players.

In fact, last fall we sent our groin protection system to former MLB catcher John Baker, who’s now with the Chicago Cubs as a baseball operations assistant.

He can’t say enough about the gear—and all of it’s good.  In addition to the props he gives us on Twitter he went on record in this article on mixedmartialarts.com.

When we first launched Diamond MMA, we put together a series of marketing videos guaranteed to prove that we’d designed a groin protection system that beat the old school “jockstrap plus plastic athletic cup” competition hands down. 

So, as the controversy continues about whether or not Ken Shamrock’s TKO loss to Royce Gracie in the first round of Bellator 149 was due to nut shot, instead of weighing in, we’re moving forward with our campaign to make sure that every athlete has the best possible protection for his package.

Last week, Spurs guard, Manu Ginobili, took a knee to the groin and wound up leaving the game and heading into surgery. He's expected to be off the basketball court for a month.
There's been some speculation about the extent of his injury, and how it compares to other recent testicle injuries. Other athletes have been back in the game much faster.
