Over time, you often feel like you've seen almost everything on a baseball field. After all, the number of games that the teams are playing year after year, it is rare to see something completely new.
However, sport always finds ways to launch a little curve ball on us on occasion … And last night, on the side of San Francisco, we had a whole.
In the fourth round, the brave of Atlanta had the goals filled with a single withdrawal, and Sean Murphy struck a sacrifice ball in the right field. Until then, everything is fine … but it was complicated after the Mike Yastrzemski relay.
In fact, on the sequence, the relay was sent to the first goal, which acted as a interceptor. But at even Moment, a supporter in the tarrades launched a second ball on the field … and everyone was quite confused.
The giant recipient, Patrick Bailey, played the right ball, but it still surprised everyone a little.
On the sequence, Matt Olson was declared except in marble because the referees judged that he had beaten the relay of Yastrzemski. The giants tried to plead their cause considering the presence of the second ball on the field, without success.
Obviously, for many reasons, it is a gesture that could have had much more serious consequences. It could have further influenced the game's result, but above all, it could have hurt a player if the ball had reached someone.
Especially since at the distance as it traveled, the ball was clearly arrived with a lot of speed. It could have been dangerous.
A fairly special scene, therefore, but which fortunately will not have had too many consequences. Note that the giants won with the 5-4 brand and that the match ended in 10th round.
