Yogi Berra said, "Baseball is 90% mental, the other half is physical." I don't think this is what he meant.

...but it makes for a good series :D

Ouch.

I did something similar when I was a 10 year old making my first in-game slide.

My cleats came down too early and I went face first into the base. I laughed.

This guy is at least 6'4. He just came in too fast and tumbled. The funniest part is that he didn't clean the dirt off his face.

I've lived in 3 Continents, 5 Countries, 8 different US States, been to 12 Rodeos and a World's Fair and that has GOT to be the worst slide into 3rd base that I have ever seen in my life!! :lol:

Excellent photo series. Frame them and blackmail the kid with them!!!! :)

how on earth was he called out when it clearly looks like he got his hand on the bag (despite his elegant slide) before being tagged?
