It wasn’t just slid short, it was “eh I assume double play so I’ll just give up” and it cost an out. It’s lazy bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how prevalent that still is but apparently it must be if Robert slid like that. However there's no rule that says you can't slide directly into the base and risk it. But I'm sure the Sox prefer he stays healthy and continues to swing the bat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won and it didn’t matter, but still would like to see a better effort than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won and it didn’t matter, but still would like to see a better effort than that. But the fielder is still throwing it to 1st. It just depends where he catches the ball at and how quickly he thinks he has to get rid of it. Runners also used to slide with their arms in front of their face . Of course baseball's a little more gentle than it used to be . Forcing runners to duck and cover on slides was usually because breaking up a DP by coming in high and hard or wide and hard at 2nd was allowed until they changed the rules an you got an auto DP if you try too hard to break up the DP. Better to just get down and stay out of the way now. Sox got fucked on a slide deemed too hard earlier in the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
