was just about to post this. He locks up MLB play of the year on opening day.

He's probably been secretly working on his tarp slides in prep for that maneuver:

He must be from Iowa.

Wow just an awesome play. Nothing beats baseball being back & a nightlky dose of web gems. That's a top 10 play for the whole year.

Oh how I've missed baseball. That was an amazing play, I agree it will be a Top-10 (at the very least) Web Gem come the end of the season.

That's why I said "Secretly"

The footage has been blocked by MLB.

They are such douches.

That play was sick.

Buehrle is already in midseason form.

Thank you, bodoyle.

I must be getting old. I took "ridiculous" way too literally, as in Buehrle throwing to second while the winning run scored. Egad!

While the footage I just saw (the first one of bodoyle's alternates) didn't include the beginning of the play (i.e. I missed everything before Buehrle crossing the foul line), Buehrle's change of position (not to mention sport) was worth the effort. I'm just glad it wasn't screwed up by the ump.

Down! Set! Hut! Hut! Hut!
