Padres’ Xander Bogaerts Got ‘Thrown’ Out at Home in Maybe the Silliest Baserunning Blunder of MLB Season
By now we all know the cliche “sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good.” Heck, some of us have probably lived that many times in our respective lives.
But sometimes it’s fun to be reminded of it, especially when it’s done in a silly way by professional athletes who shouldn’t have to depend on luck to make a play.
What the Giants did during Sunday’s game against the Padres was a perfect, and hilarious, example of that cliche. In no way on this play that we’re going to show you in the video below did they deserve to get an out but that’s just what they did, thanks in large part to some silly decisions on the bases by Xander Bogaerts.
Check this out:
Absolutely incredible. And maybe the funniest play of the MLB season.
