I was in KC for business and my boss got us great seats for the Rockies @ the Royals.
KC player had a very strange hit...I do not recall one like this before, he must have been way behind on the pitch...any wayyyy
It hit behind the plate and spun/rolled forward into fair territory. The Rox catcher grabbed it and tagged him out. I could see the batter pointing to the spot behind the plate saying-it hit back here! It hit back here! the Home Plate Umpire just said-Yes, it did! Yes it did! The Royals Mgr came out and got in between them....asked what did he say? The Umpire told him and the Mgr rolled his eyes and walked away.
I WISH I would have remembered which Royals player that was!
