Not sure if this was mentioned in another thread, if it was, I apologize. But tonight, Sean Casey was thrown out at first base by the left fielder. I don't think I've ever seen that. He hit a liner off of Crede's glove that bounced to the LF, Casey thought the ball was caught and started heading back to the dugout, but by the time he realized it wasn't caught, he was thrown out. AMAZING. Hate to see that happen to him. Nobody plays harder than Casey.
freel does
That's not fair though. Freel plays harder than Pete Rose did. freel should be automatically excluded any time anyone makes a statement like that.Originally Posted by aodaniel
What do you expect as fat as Casey is???
And I agree with the Ryan Freel statement.

Casey = The Penguin?
The guys on SportCenter described it as "one of the worst outs you'll ever see"

It sounds more like a freak play and a huge mental mistake by Casey.
I hate to break this to Sean, but this is probably the thing he will be remembered for long after he is retired.
And i realize he was angry when the play happened, but I do hope he can get a chuckle out of it as he gets older.
This is Enos Cabell trying to blow a ball fowl. This is a homer bouncing off Jose Canseco's head. This is Dave Winfield and the seagull.
EDIT: and you would be correct, RedsMetz - it was a very freak play. Casey simply thought the ball was caught and turned his back on the play.
There is no question it's embarressing and my guess is Case won't take this too hard. He's a fairly affable guy, capable of laughing at himself.
I just watched video on the Tigers web page and you can see how Casey thought Crede caught. The full 360 turn killed him, but hats off to Ozuna who absolutely saw the play the whole way. This takes you to the story and then you can view it as Ozuna Gets Casey.

After Casey got thrown out, did he run out to hug the left fielder for making such a great play, then shake hands with the ump for making such a good call?
fair enough. freel should be excluded by default.That's not fair though. Freel plays harder than Pete Rose did. freel should be automatically excluded any time anyone makes a statement like that.
It's probably a lot easier to have a sense of humor about it in a 10-0 game than it would have been in a close one.
