LosMediasBlancas Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 I missed the entire game last night and I keep hearing we stole home. Someone described the play to me this morning and it doesn't sound like a steal to me. Can someone give me the situation and what happened. Thx.

Howell tried Picking Scotty off at first, once he started to throw the ball there, Ozuna broke for home and slid under thte tag, it was an awesome play.

RockRaines Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 He didnt really slide under the tag, he slid behind it. He was in the air and reached around Buck's shinguard and tagged home. It really was a play that makes you yell when you see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted September 9, 2005 Author Share Posted September 9, 2005 Not trying to be buzzkill. I understand that it was scored a steal, I'm not sure there is any other way to score it. A man is on third, the pitcher goes into his wind up, the runner breaks for the plate and scores under the tag, THAT'S stealing home. Mickey Matle did it a few times, not sure I've seen it recently.

tonyho7476 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 However you score it, it was awesome. I had a perfect view of it, sitting on the 1st base side...and seeing the play happen was cool. Ozuna also was like 2 feet off the air on his dive. Then freddy f***ed it all up!

bighurt574 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 It's a steal. Had Podsednik stolen second, and Ozuna broke for home on the throw to second, I don't think there'd be any debate. This is the same thing. Maybe not as cool as a flat-out break for home, but still a steal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVSoxFan Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 That was one of the cool plays I've seen this year--typical of the whole new team mentality and execution. Like when Tads did the suicide squeeze the another night. And after it happened, I thought we had the game. It was one of the low-scoring snoozefests that reminded me of the KC game back in the spring where we won the game without batting in a run--KC walked in two. I thought: another KC game gem... and then... poof. I don't think that pitch was even across the plate yet when Hawk called it as outta there. Oh well. We took the series, which all season is fine by me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
