This isn't getting the attention that it deserves. It is extremely hard for a catcher to throw to first base with a left-handed batter in the box. But to do it without looking? This is absolutely, fvcking phenomenal. I don't think the common person realizes just how incredible this is:

The best part is as the runner is walking back to the dugout and he gives the catcher a quick glance like “what the f*ck kind of sorcery was that sh*t”
I never have seen that in 50 yrs with a lefty in the box. Watched Chandler Sheppard pitch on TV for the red Sox rifle. He made the 40 man roster.
I saw it in Babe Ruth but the catcher pegged the batter in the back on the head. And then the guy stole second.
And he was the Collegiate Baseball Player of the Year at Florida State. Still have a picture of him with my son.
I remember seeing a young kid that played catcher for the Herd back in the early 2000's. He couldn't hit worth a shit, and couldn't pick up a drunk chick at a fraternity party, but he had a rifle for an arm.
I vaguely remember that guy. He was the same one that Marshall had to special order a protective cup for because no manufacturer made one big enough to fit his crank in.
No, that wasn't him, this was a white guy.
That is because he couldn't catch and he got hit in the dick by a curve ball.
This is great. Just like old times. Talking about trashing women, baseball, and cranks.
it was incredible and clearly we aren't common people.
One of the best things about going to a major league game is watching the players throw and warm up. You can tell right there why they are in the bigs. I could watch them throw for hours.
I love watching that day's starting pitcher warm up via long toss in the outfield. Max Scherzer's routine is mesmerizing.
