A reduced injury factor baseball has the same coefficient of r$$stitution as a normal baseball except that it deforms more severly during a collision. Why does this increased deformability lessen the forces exerted by the ball during a bounce and reduce the chances of its causing injury?

$dp=F^{**}dt.$ Given dp is the same, you want to decrease F so dt needs to increase.
