Former Cub and Astro Roger Metzger had a similar accident, on his dominant hand, using a table saw.

"In the off-season between 1979 and 1980 Metzger lost the tips of four fingers (index to pinky) in a table saw accident. He attempted a comeback for the 1980 season, but was released by the San Francisco Giants on August 10, 1980, after only hitting .074 in 28 games."

By the way, that's reality and not OOTP.

A few days later his friend called him up and asked him if he wanted to go bowling.

Clearly, there is something else going on here.
