I'm not getting this shot. Was this a pickoff attempt by the pitcher to keep the runner close to 2nd base? We usually don't see shots like a runner stealing second from THIRD BASE!!! Plus, it doesn't help that the dirt obscured (what I believe) to be 2nd base?

Whatever was going on, your timing was superb on the shot!

if you flip the picture sliding from right to left it would be stealing second

Not often you see a left-handed shortstop.
