Ghost runner Jake Cronenworth wishes he were an actual ghost as he takes a very real ball to the back on a pickoff attempt

Poor guy. That’s gotta sting.
I’m tired boss..
My ~~leg~~ lung!
Doval is such an embarrassment now
not the way I envisioned finding out Doval got recalled. that’s gotta hurt though.
Damn Doval didn’t even look like he cared enough to ask Cronenworth if he’s alright, what a douche.
Potential new strategy, bean the guy as hard as possible and hope he passes out off of the bag.
No I am not advocating for this, but imagine if he wasn’t of sound mind to keep his foot on the bag there from the pain.
What a shitty thing to do. He clearly saw Jake was back way early
Cronenworth: “fuck”
Doval throws a HBPickOff
Just be glad you didn’t get beaned in the Crone Zone, Jake.
Obviously I feel for my boy Jake but there’s something so comical about the way he gets to the bag and then just slumps over and dies
I don’t know why I’m laughing so hard at this. The runner gets hit and just melts.
The only way to make this better is the pitcher running out and yelling: “ARE YOU FUCKING SORRY!?!”
“I’ve been shot!” *dies dramatically*
I get that it’s a joke but he’s an automatic runner, not a ghost runner. Ghost runners are when you don’t have enough people for a game so if someone gets a hit there’s an imaginary runner on first. They don’t steal, and only go as far as the batter-runner on a hit.
I read “to the sack” and was so confused. Like Jake’s carrying it over his shoulder or what?
With that pain, he’s more like Jake Groanenworth.
Ow.
What a dick for not at least taking a couple steps and asking “You good?”
Doval sucks.
Edit: Just checked the box score. Karma had Jake’s back.
Probably the last time he ever retreats to the bag with his back to the pitcher.
That’s what you get motherfucker
It looks like it hit him on the spine, and that needs almost 0 speed to hurt. I got plunked by a 50 mph batting practice ball in high school once. It came gumballing in, so I just took it rather than resetting my feet, and omfg it dropped me and hurt for hours after. I led the state in hbp that year (something like 20 hbp in 24 games; I was a major trash talker), and that one hurt the worst BY FAR, although I had one hit my helmet that did more actual damage.
This is why I quit when I was 7
That’s some Little League base running awareness right there.
If you hit someone safe on a pickoff attempt it should be the same as hit by pitch and they get the next base.
We wasted our best Doval years.
zero remorse was shown
Well, that was at least an on target throw
Fell down like he got shot in a movie lmfao
Im laughing way too hard at this lololol. Feel bad also. That shit must really hurt tho
