Why This Matters

It's off the palm of his hand or his
thumb. It bounces up and then he stays
with it for the fingertip grab and he is
stunned. Here's the live look. This ball
off the end of the bat, stays down the
whole way. Jazz like, "Whoa, you you you
saw that? That's crazy." Almost like
throwing a wad of paper into a fan. And
I've never seen a ball stay that low and
get that far. I think it had to have
crazy spin or no spin, which is kind of
what Jazz says. First, he's going to
turn to his infielder and let him know
that almost broke my thumb. And
then he's gonna say, "It was knuckling."
So, I think it had no spin. Yeah, just a
crazy play and an owie.
