Cruel *** sport

[Shadow34]

Damn baseball can take you to the mountain top one day and absolutely rip your heart out the next. That poor right fielder for auburn will never forget that. I thought he had it.

Just brutal.

Yeah, hate to see that. He made some great plays earlier in the game.

He did have it. He misjudged and over-pursued it, yet still reached back and got his glove on it. Was not going out...rather he knocked it up and out with his glove. Told my wife that poor bastard is gonna live with that the rest of his life. Probably haunt him to his grave.

Glad to see some of his teammates come up and show him so love after.

Karmic return for the immaculate deflection.

The video clip of the play should be added to the end of this intro.

Side note: In 1991 I spent the summer working in summer stock in Maine with Stanley Ralph Ross, the man who wrote that intro. He used to write for Batman and All In the Family and even developed the Lynda Carter Wonder Woman show for television. Later in life he co-wrote a musical. He was a mensch and a big Penn State fan. It's amazing to have met the man who wrote those lines that every middle-aged sports fan in America grew up hearing!

At least it wasn't Canseco style.

Legalized sports gambling already rearing its ugly head. ***
