Everyone involved , except maybe the other runner, did something stupid during that play. Baez not only kept retreating to home as if that should have done anything and stopping to celebrate when the runner got home before realizing he still needed to actually get to first for the run to count, the 2B not covering when it was obvious Craig wasn't going back, the catcher making a poor throw to give them another base. It's all a shit show.
Not just first base, he had already stupidly chased the runner back to home plate, might as well had just tagged him there and ended the inning with that run not counting anyway.
@@zimvader25yup lol, he thought the run would count if the runner touched the plate first. he didn’t realize that runs don’t count if the 3rd out of an inning is a force out
I been watching a lot of sports a lot of time and I think that's the dumbest play in any sport I've ever seen on the pure simplicity of what needed to be done, the insane failure to remember his job, and then his team-mates screwing up so that instead of being just a dumb play that got rectified with no damage, the catcher and the other fielder managed to screw up the second throw to first and let in a run + an additional base. The only ones that come close are all those soccer goals where a player kicks it backward to the goalkeeper but the keeper misses blocking it and scores an OG. But that one he literally just needs to take a stepbackward and it's over.
I umpired baseball and softball for 30 years. The absolute dumbest baserunning play I witnessed was in a men's softball league. There was a runner at first base with no one out. The batter hit a line drive. The shortstop made a fine leaping catch for an out. The runner at first base had left the base as soon as the ball was hit. The shortstop tried to double the runner off by throwing to first base but the throw was offline. The ball bounced into the bench area out of play. The runner slid back into first base. I was the base umpire. I called him safe--a very easy call. Then I ruled the ball was dead because it had rolled into the bench area. By rule, I awarded the runner two bases on the overthrow rule. The puzzled runner looked at me and asked, "Do I get to go to third base on that play?" I said yes. So the runner ran directly across the diamond--he could have shaken hands with the pitcher--without even considering touching second base! Everyone one his team gasped. The defensive team properly appealed that the runner had missed second base. His teammates were not pleased with him, to say the least.
Honestly that just sounds like not knowing the rules. An amateur softball player I can forgive for not knowing the rules. A Major League player, however....
Sosa missing the base and returning is both a bad moment and a good moment. Bad because he missed, but good because he didn't try to just keep running and then get called out on appeal.
It was absolutely a smart play. The baserunning issue was a mechanical issue - his pace was thrown off because he had to skip over the ball as he ran. Once his pace is off, it's hard to land your feet where they belong on the run. He didn't get thrown out, though - the negative IQ play would be if he'd kept going.
1:18. I absolutely love how the first base coach was on high alert and handled the situation. They got an extra base out of it and the next batter singled home Baez for a run. Outstanding.
I still don't understand why when the first baseman caught the ball and Baez started moving backwards, the 1B didn't just step on first base for the out...
@@dentonyoung4314 Not only that, he doubled down on stupid. He still could've just tagged the runner instead of tossing the ball to the catcher. There were 2 outs, so it wouldn't matter if the runner crosses the plate before you tag the batter out- the run wouldn't count. The catcher could've tagged him too instead of trying to tag the runner from third.
Wanna make this better? If you actually look up the score of that game, you’ll find that because of how that turned out, the Cubs won by 2 Which means that mishandle actually cost the Pirates the game
Yeah, and he's an infielder by trade. Boston tried him out there for a little while to keep his bat in the lineup, but in his whole career he hasn't spent 20 games in the outfield.
While this is a funny video, unlike other similar videos, you allow the gags to play out rather than cut them off abruptly and go to another. It's quite good.
For anyone curious about Will Craig, we was designated for assignment by Pittsburg on June 4th, 2021. A month or so later he was picked up by the Kiwoom Heroes, a South Korean baseball team. But that didn’t last either cuz he wasn’t resigned for the 2022 season and is currently a free agent. No one’s heard from him since lol Edit: In June 2022, Craig went back to school at Wake Forest University to complete his degree and is currently on their coaching staff.
On that batter-runner running away from first and then back to home, they still had a chance to negate that runner scoring if someone had covered first base on the eventual errant throw.
At first I was like "okay, the 1B didn't want the runner to score while he went to tag the bag, I kinda see how this happened" but then I realized -- yeah, there were already two outs!!
Defense must've lost track of how many outs there were. Well, more broadly, the defense forgot how to play baseball, but you would only be concerned with the runner on third if you thought there were less than two outs.
@TrueSbStar the catcher might have known but he couldn't throw to first as no one was covering it until way too late. Then again, the catcher could have just tagged the batter-runner when they got real close. I guess instinct, at that point just caused the catcher to turn to the runner scoring. You kinda can't blame him.... I just watched again. The batter-runner never got close enough to the catcher to be tagged by him.
Man that sucks when you hit a home run which is the greatest feeling for any hitter, but then you're tagged out because you forgot to do something you were taught at t ball. Always remember to touch all the bases.
Yup. The baserunning blunder we see here was the same thing he did a year or two earlier with the Cubs. You'd think he would have learned his lesson from his first time forgetting how many outs there were. I guess not. (He got benched after his baserunning blunder with the Cubs, and I think he got benched again after the blunder in this video.)
@@3rdeye931I think the person you replied to was also joking. "stop at three burgers for breakfast" is not what someone would say giving serious advice
The second clip is the winner. Two outs - all the fielder needs to do is take his time and walk back to first and step on the bag. Even if the bases emptied, it's a force play at first and any run scoring before the two out force play wouldn't count.
4:05 my coach always says that if you make an error then you need to calm down, set your feet, and throw the ball well. you don't want to make the situation any worse by messing up the throw too
Hey, quick question, I was thinking about making these type of baseball videos but wasn't quite sure were to get the clips from, if you don't mind where do you get them from?
The weird thing about the Will Craig play is had he just held onto the ball, he could have tagged both the batter and the runner coming down from third for a really weird unassisted double play!
Of all these plays, Baez vs Pirate has to be the worse. From little league, travel ball, and high school, not once have I been told to walk the runner back home from first. 😂😂😂😂 And he made it to 2nd.
Raburns wasn't really a negative IQ play so much as him accidentally whiffing the throw and throwing into 27th base. He at least immediately recognized it was fair.
Brain farts happen. When I was playing Senior Little League, we had bases loaded and our runner on 1st base tried to steal 2nd. As I said, bases were loaded. He swore that my dad, who was our coach, gave him the steal sign. My dad was a very smart guy and the best baseball coach I ever had. He did not give the steal sign. Our teammate was a stoner so that explains a lot.
A baseball rule I’ll never understand is the Baez situation, where you’re allowed to run back to home to avoid a tag, but god forbid you take a diff path to 1st or home to avoid a tag, you’re immediately called out
0:36 He could have gotten down on his hands and knees, and KISSED first base. Could have gone down in history as the troll of the 21st century, instead he's the guy who tried to *tag out* a guy between home plate and first base.
The first play is two guys trying really hard to protect a no hitter. That’s not a low IQ play. Even perfectly fielded by the catcher that batter would have been safe.
0:31 Let alone the first baseman forgetting about the FORCE OUT All they had to do was cover first base and the run wouldn't have counted Why was no one covering first 3:34 I remember this game Kluber had perfect game going on into the 7th Can't remember the Royals pitcher, I want to say Duffy. had a no hitter through 7 too
No one was covering first because no one practices covering first on routine ground balls to first because no one believes anyone is dumb enough to get in a run down on a ground ball to first with two outs.
I looked it up. Apparently, in the 2021 baseball season he got picked up by the Kiwoom Heroes, a South Korean baseball team. After a decent season Craig wasn’t resigned for the 2022 season and became a free agent. Like you said, no one’s heard from him since lol
What about the long single where the batter homered but was called out for passing a runner at first base? The runner thought the homer was a fly out and returned to first to tag up, but the batter ran past him. I think it was Max Muncy who had his home run turned into a single and baserunning out. All the runners ahead of him were allowed to score, though.
That reminds me of how The Harvey Haddix Game ended. That's the infamous game where Haddix pitched a perfect game for 12 innings and lost 1-0... but it really should have been 3-0. In the bottom of the 13th, Felix Mantilla reached on an error. Eddie Mathews put down a sacrifice bunt, advancing Mantilla to second. Hank Aaron was intentionally walked. First and second, one out, Joe Adcock up. Adcock crushes a ball over the fence in right-center field for what SHOULD be a three-run homer. But Aaron doesn't get a good view of the ball, and when he sees Mantilla cross the plate, he thinks the game is over and goes straight to the dugout. Adcock continues around the bases, but is ruled out for passing Aaron on the base path. Net result: RBI double, Mantilla's run is the only one that actually scores, 1-0 final.
