@AnnoyedSoxFan I don’t think they can measure sunniness, but sun and wind can make that a harder catch than the standard 2D measurement of how many feet based on the perfect route.
He wasn’t showboating, he tracked it and has shown he’s willing to dive to make the catch.
Which player would you rather have in the box?
Player A:
.259/.323/.379/.702
.6 oWAR (130 PA)
22.3% SO / 7.7 BB
Player B:
.225/.302/.357/.659
.8 oWAR (203 PA)
26.6% SO / 7.4 BB
Player A is Tristan Peters…Player B is the other center fielder in Chicago.
@ajpierzynski12 How hard were you panicking when that ball hit your foot? Think you had him either way, but couldn’t have known that with back to plate.
@Zigmanfreud There are thousands of HS and rec umps that don’t feel the need to go to the bigs and are happy umpiring their local field for a few bucks on the side.
