Have security escort that kid out of the park, he's a little Bartman. Poor kid. Thrill of a lifetime turns into a punishable offense… |

Fb high to Alvarez, 1-0
Slider bounced outside, 2-0
Fb low on the inner half, quickly 3-0.
Takes a crushable FB above middle, 3-1
Takes a drop the bat happy zone FB down and in, 3-2
Surprised he didn't swing on either.
Un-bee-leave-able
Guesses slider by count and location, takes a waist high FB on the outer 3rd, ꓘ.
Never seen Alvarez do anything like that, ever.

Pena fouls off a change well outside, 0-1
Swings over a change low, 0-2
Takes the back leg slider, 1-2
Slider in the middle, just below the knees, hits a hard grounder down 3rd that Cabrera backhands near the bag, but is running the wrong way, and Pena beats the throw, infield hit.

Thrill of a lifetime turns into a punishable offense… I dunno, I find it hard to get too angry at a kid who's just making a pretty natural reaction. For that matter Bartman only did what most fans would do in that situation. |

I guess he took away a double there, and Rizzo came off to prevent Pena getting to 2nd on the offline throw.
Singleton takes a Fb outside, 1-0
Then a FB down and away for a strike, 1-1
Throw over
Fouls off a FB up and away, 1-2
Bounces the slider outside, 2-2, Wells blocks it.
Chases a terrible slider way low and outside with sharp break for the K.

For those that never saw:
Brooks Robinson, Clete Boyer, Graig Nettles could make the play Cabrera made and had enough are to get the runner. It was like magic…

2 outs, man on 1st for Bregman
FB near the top outside corner for a strike.
Another one, same spot, lined to right, but it's right to Soto, almost misjudges, has to reach high late, but catches, inning over. Too close to a RBI triple, Juan.
Bottom 4, 5-1 Yanks.
Top of the order for the Yanks, Volpe, Soto, Judge.

It was like magic… Not old enough to have seen Boyer play, but can vouch for the other two. For the Young'uns, look up World Series highlights of Brooks from 1970 vs. the Reds, and Nettles highlights in the Guidry start in game 3 of the 1978 World Series. |

It was like magic… When our grandson was out here, he threw paper out of the car window. Ruthie jumped him for it. I said, don’t get upset, Sean. You did wrong, but that’s how you learn. Of course he’s ten. His daddy said nothing. The kid learned to throw things out the car window somewhere, right? West Virginia, I’d suppose… |

Cutter waist high outer 3rd, rolled over to Pena, who throws him out, 1 down.
