He looks dead

ZachS 09-18-2013 12:48 PM

Perfect form in my opinion.

looks like he had too much tequila

That wasn't a very good slide. I am going with the staged one above..... :)

Slide
 
Obviously the danger of sliding too hard through the base.

Hey, is that Shoeless Joe?

The left fielder doesn't look too thrilled...

No he doesn't. And another question. Why does the fielder have the glove on the slider, it has no ball in it? It's as though he is holding him off the base? All he had to do for the play is tag him with the ball. The runner wouldn't be out had he got tagged with a glove without a ball in it.

Yep. Maybe he got flustered when the 2nd baseman pulled out his Iphone to take the picture?...:)...

Clearly the guy in the back is drawing a chalk line around the corpse.

HercDriver 09-18-2013 06:35 PM

Wow
 
And is the guy in the outfield wearing a shirt? Either way, he should be backing up the play.

That's almost as bad as some of the posed Old Judge cards.

GasHouseGang 09-19-2013 03:55 PM

It's also weird to see all those houses beyond the trees in the outfield. Kind of looks like the field we played on growing up in the midwest.

Good sliding techniques

That was a great slide but Jonathon Villar performed an even better one right into Brandon Phillips in yesterday's game. :p

It's been proven that you don't have to tag the player with the ball to get an out........even in a World Series.
