Baseball is not called softball. The game of softball is called softball because the ball used is softer than a baseball.
Some of the most common baseball and softball injuries include rotator cuff injuries, elbow injuries such as Tommy John surgery, and injuries to the hamstrings and knees due to running and sliding. Additionally, ankle sprains and muscle strains are also common in both sports.
They named it softball because the game of softball was derived from Baseball. The baseball had a hard core whereas the softball has a soft core, so they named it softball. Although the ball is not softball the core of the ball is soft.
