Game 208 - New York Yankees at Cleveland Indians

August 11 at Progressive Field in Cleveland, OH
Fox Sports Indians

Just a real quick thought from this five-hour pudding fight, which the Indians won in 16 innings.

Cleveland 3B Giovanny Urshela made a nice play on a ground ball by Brett Gardner in the fourth, ranging to his right and jumping to throw out the speedy/once really speedy/am I speedy? Gardner by a step. I don't know the names of the Cleveland announcers, but one of them said this during one of the 11 replays they showed: "that's a very athletic play."

They're all athletic plays.

It's right there in the name: MAJOR LEAGUE Baseball.

If this was 25-over Poughkeepsie Adult League Baseball, then you could blurt that out, sure. Tommy Michonelli and his 33-year old knees making that play is probably an entirely different story.
