High school student athletes interested in playing at the next level come and join us on November 16th as we will have a Jets Prospect Camp. We will visit every aspect of the game offensively, defensively, and mentally along with a tour of the campus.

@miles_burton24@itz_the_emister @hayden_heinze @gmcknight0383@BaseballBros Contact was made before he touched the bag because the first baseman was IN the baseline.. The ball wasn't even there yet, and it hit the runner on the back of his right knee AS he touched the bag.. Bad throw, making a play on it put him in the runner's path..
@miles_burton24 @hayden_heinze @gmcknight0383@BaseballBros He ran straight from the batters box to the bag. 1b was trying to make a play on a shitty throw, and the runner has every right to the bag as the defender.. What's he supposed to do, stop and let him make a play on a bad throw?? Get in the runners way and get run over.. Simple..
@miles_burton24 @hayden_heinze @gmcknight0383@BaseballBros I've been playing, coaching and watching baseball for 36 of my 42 years, and I can honestly say that this is the first time I've ever ever seen or heard of a runner being called out for running down the baseline instead of the lane. Pitcher about threw it into the dugout anyway.
@miles_burton24@yeagowv @hayden_heinze @gmcknight0383@BaseballBros And if he was running in his lane, he would have been drilled in the back of his left knee instead of his right knee by that horrendous throw.. Look like they were throwing the ball to the first base coach, lol..
@miles_burton24@yeagowv @hayden_heinze @gmcknight0383@BaseballBros Put the rules aside for just a second- where is first base located in the 3' wide "runners lane"? It's on the baseline in fair territory.. Now if there was an extra base like on a softball field, different story.. That's one of those rules I wouldn't want to win by..
