And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Scraping off your own face for baseball. And he's out.
I bet he needed to rinse his mouth out after that. Looks like the bill on his helmet helped clear the way for his face. A bit. Shoulda had goggles on too maybe. If he hadn't been dragging his hands he might have stayed ahead of the tag to the testicles and such. It also looked like the baseman was trying to slow the runner's/slider's roll with his throwing hand to ensure the tag. Perhaps he was trying to do a somersault over the (I'm guessing) 3rd baseman. The runner's/slider's right hand got hung up a bit on the baseman's right shoe, aiding the flip/attempted headstand. Looks like he was reaching for the bag. Or, he coulda just tripped and it was all accidental. That's all I got........
Worst face plant I've seen in years.
ReplyDeleteShould have been called safe just out of compassion for his pain.
ReplyDeleteBet his nose left a furrow you could plant pumkin seeds in.
ReplyDeleteMitt to the nuts as well
ReplyDeleteYeah, looked that way to me too. Maybe it took away the pain of face slide but what a way to do that.
DeleteYep ball tagging balls.
