Paul O'Neill has clarified that he kicked that baseball out of anger because he thought he lost the game with that bobble. His temper accidentally saved the game-winning run from scoring.
As a reds fan, I remember watching that play live. Never once did it cross my mind that he wasnt kicking the ball out of anger. The guy was a hothead and was very hard on himself especially. Heads up play? hardly...lucky fluke, definitely
Paul is a friend of my family. When I asked him about it he said that it was more a play of desperation. He couldn't make a clean play on it so in a millisecond with the ball at his feet he tried something and it just happened to work. Call it heads up, call it luck, call it desperate, call it what you like, but in the moment it wasn't out of anger. Paul has a history of being extremely self disciplined and hard on himself when he made mistakes which at times led to him having a temper. But that wasn't what happened in the moment that he made that play. In actuality, he hates that that play gets featured so often as a "heads up" play because he says it was the opposite; a desperate attempt to save a play that just happened to work out. So if you ever meet him, don't mention this play because he hates talking about it.
@@justincooper2631 I am a big Yankees fan, and hear Mr. O'Neill on YES Network broadcasts of ballgames all the time. That play is something that occasionally gets brought up on-air, and thinking back he is usually rather quick to carry on from the subject. It seems to be one of Michael Kay's favorite Paul O'Neill stories though, next to that time he pitched for the Reds in a blowout and tweaked his arm throwing as hard as he could. Very cool to have some first-hand knowledge here though, so thank you!
It’s a fairly common play actually. A variation that’s a fumbleroosky is the ball is snapped and set down, while the o line stands up and the QB starts walking over to the sideline to talk to the coach. It’s interesting to see it working in the NFL though.
PEEPPER _F_L_A_S_H_ this doesn't make you look smarter for correcting him.. you just look dumber because everyone knows you understood what he meant but felt like YOU had to correct him. Lol. Bravo! You succeeded in showing how desperate for attention you are! +1

5:12-5:20...I was watching the Super Bowl at my cousin's house that year. As soon as the Eagles pulled that play, I turned to her & said, "That's the play that's gonna win the Eagles this Super Bowl".
@@itzstat1c132 in THIS universe the Eagles won the Super Bowl 41-33. It's really cool to speak to a person from an alternate universe. I take it the Patriots won in your universe? What was the score?

The infield fly rule is a rule of baseball that treats certain fly balls as though caught, before the ball is caught, even if the infielder fails to catch it or drops it on purpose. The umpire's declaration of an infield fly means that the batter is out (and all force plays are removed) regardless of whether the ball is caught. The rule exists solely to prevent the defense from executing a double play or triple play by deliberately failing to catch a ball that an infielder could catch with ordinary effort. 1:47
elli Seeley Odell Beckham Jr catches a ball one handed one time and everyone calls it the Odell now, many players have caught it similar to his one handed
@@nothinnonthing6951 The clip clearly shows a guy on first and second and shows the guy standing at third in the end. Must be before the infield fly rule.
@@hailhale-l2x infield fly was first introduced in 1895 and hasn't been changed since 1920. The only reason it wouldn't be a infield fly is, line drive (not this scenario), bunt (n/a) or the umpires deemed it didn't go high enough, which I personally disagree with
@@aidanbransfield991 Nope, infield fly applies when there are less than 2 outs and a force out at 3rd (bases loaded or man on 1st and 2nd) Definitely should have been infield fly.
@@jeffreymartinez6064 Did it work? We didn't see enough to determine that for sure. Why wasn't it called immediately? Good question. I'd need to see more than what was shown. (Spoiler Alert: Sometimes umps make mistakes.) However, my only point was to hllboi817's comment that implied the infield fly rule was put in place sometime AFTER the play seen @ 2:15. Obviously that's not the case.
3:13 This wasn’t a smart play, he was literally just really mad and kicked the ball out of anger. By all chances though, he kicked it right to the first baseman
I suppose they ruled it wasn't high or "easy" enough a fly ball to call the infield fly. The ump should have though. That ball was catchable with "minimal effort".
