The inside the park homerun is arguably one of the hardest things to do in a single at bat and requires great speed and agility yet Prince fielder has two inside the park homeruns
the cool thing about it when the bases are empty is that you are credited with a triple. That triple ends up being worth as much as a K or a 6-3 ground out.
What if a guy was out at second (a single), and out at third (a double), out at home (a triple), and then in the bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, two outs, down three runs, he hits it out of the park, but he has pine tar too far from the knob of his bat?
Hey Andrew! How about a compilation of bullpens clearing? That's one of the funniest moments in baseball for the idle viewer, and is as varied as they come - sometimes bullpens jog on to the field and other times they RUN as if their life was on the line (the Yankee bullpen yesterday comes to mind). Also I request you to consider setting up a Patreon or something similar. I'm sure this is time consuming and I think I speak for many when I say that you as a creator deserve our contribution. Anyway. Keep up the good work! :)
Man, those guys trying to get an inside the park home runs with none out. Why? At third base, you have three chances for someone else to drive you in (and two chances to get the run in, without a hit).
I was at both that happened at Chase Field. The D-backs lost against the Mets (and Cody Ross suffered a dislocated hip in the bottom of the 2nd), but beat the Indians in 14 on a Gerardo Parra sac fly at what was the time tied for the longest game in Chase Field history by time at 5 hours 32 minutes
Roy Sievers was out at home in May(?) 1964 trying to stretch a triple. He was playing for Phillies, in game vs. Cincinnati. The batter gets a triple because he did reach 3rd safely.
The thing is, if you look at the reply closely on the first one (it isn't shown here, you will have to look on another video), that he is actually safe, so that should have been a homer.
I was thinking to myself right around the 5:00 mark "Come on, the Twins have to have at least one". Nope, they had three in a row immediately following. Remember all three. 25% of the guys stood in the batter's box admiring a fraction too long..
I remember watching the Giants one where Blanco gets out at home against the Padres and I was so triggered. I also remember the one against the Cubs which I was mildly disappointed about.
i was at the infante one the game sucked because it was my first red sox game (red sox fan in NY) and they blew the lead in the 9th. I almost cried haha
Ya know, if they would start running as soon as they hit the ball instead of standing there watching it, they might’ve been able to score most of these🤷🏼♂️😂
If a team has 2 outs and a man on 3rd, if the batter attempts an inside the park home run but is out at the plate does the run scored by the guy on 3rd count?
a force out is when the runner is forced to run to the next base, so to get out, the defense only needs to touch the base with possesion of the ball. An example of a force out is if there is a man on first base, and the batter hits a ground ball, the runner on first base is forced to run to second base. However, if there is a man on third base, and nobody on second, if the batter hits the ball, the runner on third base can choose to either stay at third base, or run home. Since he isn't forced to run home, if he does, then it's not a force out, and the defense would have to tag him with the ball.
Nico Tron as I stated above, the runner on third does not score if the hitter is out by a force at first base. If the hitter rounds all the bases and is out at the plate, the runner on third scores because he scored before the hitter decided to go for extra bases. It is not just a blanket case where "if the hitter goes out no points".
0:19 When I played this in slow motion, it looks like his hand touched the plate right before he got tagged! The umpire should have called "safe!" But instead, he called "out!"
