Will I still be able to play baseball?
How bad could my finger have gotten if someone pulled it and it popped at the middle joint of my middle finger?

You should do fine after a Salter Harris fracture of the finger, provided you follow all of your doctors instructions and allow the finger to heal. Growth plate fractures can be tricky to manage sometimes, but they definitely have the ability to heal well. You just have to do everything your physician tells you.

Hope this helps - comment back with other questions.
