PFFFFFFFTT, not even close.
Thank your lucky stars you're probably not old enough to have witnessed that game 7 loss to the Royals in the 85 ALCS after being up 3 games to 1.
When there is a play at a bag, like a runner trying to steal and if the throw is a short hop, the fielder should keep his glove parallel to the ground and take the short hop without having to come up on the ball. Dosen't almost every middle infielder receive a short hop that way on stolen base attempts?
I still find it hilarious that many here think Barney is a better defender than Goins, and no i'm not basing it on that one play.
BTW, Salty sucks balls.
Edit.. Coghlan sucks balls also, o'laying that short hop in pure little league fashion.
