Softball player carried around bases by opponents

The footage was taken by Sue Wallin, a parent at the game. Sara Tucholsky of Western Oregon is up to bat against Central Washington. The video picks up as Tucholsky hits her first ever - in her life - home run. Just past 1st base, she tears a ligament in her knee and is unable to run any further. The umpires state that if her teammates or coaches assist her she will be declared out and if a pinch runner is substitued for her, her homer will be declared a single. Hearing this, Central Washington's Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace offer to carry her around the bases. Thus ends Tucholsky's softball season and career.

That was very good sportsmanship, I play softball myself and I don't think any time would do that for me, It was very beautiful!

i am a captain and a manager of a local softball  league and if the same situation happens in our game, we will do the same , keeping quiet and hpe for a lucky win would be the greater disgrace and i am sure the team will be boycotted in any league series ..hurray for the fielders , this is their win ..

wow. i can't believe anyone would actually step up and offer to do that. well if i had thought of that i know i would have, it being her first ever homer. how exciting! its so sad that that ended her softball career though..
