as a brit with very little knowledge but a lot of admiration for baseball i have to say the way these guys throw a ball just defies physics. so damn hard and so damn accurate, it is beyond compare.

@tyler5jobin why would the runner be safe? I didn't say he should be on the grass. you can step to the feed without taking your foot off the bag. no you don't always have to make the "proper" playand yes this play is great I just think he would have had an easier time stepping across the bag. obviously it doesn't matter because he can strong arm a ball 90 feet no problem. just saying.

[tyler5jobin]

@coldwind777 if he came across the bag the guy would have been safe, and there is a lot of ways to do certain things... there's no specific way.. it comes naturally and that play is definitely one of the most athletic plays i've seen a second baseman make but no way is 'proper' you have to let the play come to you, you cant be a robot out there

[coldwind777]

@tyler5jobin I think so, too. If he stepped into it, he would have received the ball faster and may have been able to get more on the throw. I don't think there's too many people who would posit this as the "proper" way to turn that play, but I'm no expert and I've certainly done nothing even close to that.

[tyler5jobin]

@coldwind777 oh god... ahaha if you didnt notice how the throw still barely beat him then what do you think the result would have been with that one more second of him coming across the bag and setting his feet? safe maybe? i think so. alright just thought i'd inform you

[coldwind777]

he wouldn't had to done that if he'd stepped into the feed.

All you other teams in the NCAA. Look out, OSU has a team this year that seems to be on the same skill level as the back-to-back teams!!! GO BEAVS.
