I appreciate the research. And mad props to Sister Mary Felicitous for scarring me for life with these Lenten rules. At midnight tonight, I should go cowtipping and the first one that goes down should be half turned into burgers and half turned into baseball gloves
No, not saying Baez couldn’t have taken a better approach at the plate. That throw from RF made it close enough to be a play. If not for that, we’re not worried about how Baez touches the plate.
It looked like he took his eyes off of the ball and to find the base. I think he had his pitching hand up by his glove, maybe instinctively, and the ball and glove just weren’t in sync with each other.
