    Default Javier Baez Play

    Can we discuss the wildness of this play? Still not sure why the 1B didn't just touch 1st base haha.

    It's the Pirates, that's why. He brain farted when Baez ran the other way because that's not normal. The guy playing first has like 15 MLB games under his belt and 26yrs old (like 115innings?). I felt bad. The organization doesn't care, the coach isn't doing a good job at keeping them engaged. Since May1st they have 6wins and 18Losses.

    The fact no one covered 1st was because no one knew what he was doing.

    That was extremely smart base-running by Baez.

    The 1st baseman should have been better and knew what to do - Look back the runner at third and then take a couple steps back and touch his bag.

    But as someone mentioned he is young and probably got caught up in the moment. I bet that first basement has made that play before in lower levels.
