It had to occur this way! The runner and the catcher are both #17 - as any kid who ever played with magnets knows, opposites attract and likes repel. Therefore, the runner, wearing #17, was repelled over the catcher (also #17). There was a repulsive force between the two #17s. As the numbers neared each other the repulsive force strengthened exponentially (OK - perhaps only quadratically). Eventually, as the separation neared inches, the repulsive force took over and the rest is history :)
Iona College was something like 5-30 this year. Probably 4-31 last year. Arguably the worst program on the east coast. This is what happens when you have blind kids on the team.
This is NOT how you play baseball. You run the catcher over like a man, and by the rule book. Jumping over the catcher like a fifi boy will only get you hurt or flipped, and introduces cleats near the catchers head.
@JohnnyMac496 that looked fine to me. running into the catcher full speed is just as dangerous. Your logic of running him over like a man doesn't make much sense. i could just jump over him but i think i'll run into him cuz it makes me more of a man? I've ran into players and went over players, neither are safe, but typically the catcher is bigger than most players and has a lot more protection than the baserunners.
This play is incredible. Enough said about the play. Whoever made this viedo... the rewind and rewind is slow motion is annoying and lame. Just for future consideration. Three times? In rewind slow motion? It's annoying when you're in a bad mood like I am right now.
Not sure what the college rule is on this but in high school he would have been automaticly out. Diving over a fielder is illegal. Jumping or hurdling is legal only if the fielder is lying on the ground. The only way he could have been safe is if the catcher dropped the ball after he tagged him.
the rules state that you cannot come 2 ft off the baseline left or right, there is o vertical height rule... i looked it up in 3 rule books. And since it is not a forced base he has to tag him to get him out.. its considered a dive and since the catchers knee is down, he is considered "on the ground" allowing him to go over him! this is legal!!
The player never left the baseline. The baseline is the width of the path; jumping is still considered inside the basepath as long as the runner continues to go straight.
I'm not sure about the College rules, but I do know that the MLB rules state a player leaving the baseline to avoid being tagged is out...That includes leaping over a defender. This happened to my Son's Select Team in 1992. The player leaped our Pitcher and was also called safe.
harsh landing tho.. lol

@buddhaboy1126 so in your theory all a catcher has to do is lay in the way? no tag would ever be needed?
