runover by F1

[BuggBob]

Something painfully interesting happened to me yesterday. High School Play-offs, I'm BU, no runners on, no outs. Deep hit to left, I start in to the infield, like I've done a thousand times before, I look at the runner advancing, glance over to the ball, look back at the runner .... BAM! the first baseman knocks this 280 pound ex-Marine on his butt. That's right, I collide with F1. I have never seen a first baseman in that move in that area before, which is why we set up and run where we do. I am not kidding I was easily 20 feet from first base and about five feet in front of the first-second base line when we collided. The girl's head hit my collar bone (which is still sore today) and her knee hit me in the upper thigh. The girl was unhurt, as I am not a rock hard as I used to be,( yea, there are a few soft spots on this overweight body).



Any you guy ever collide with a player before?
