This was adorable...
Had runners on first and second, nobody out. Hit a ball between 1st and 2nd basemen, a low liner that got through. Instead of just holding up until it got by him, the runner on first went back to first and just stood there. I've had that happen a few times with just a runner on first. I smash the L1 button to get him going but by the time he does get going, it's too late. Ball is thrown to second for the force. On this play, however, it was even more precious than that because even the guy who was on second, for some unknowable reason, also retreated to his original base. Right fielder gets it, throws to third for one and then they go to second for two. A 9-5-4 double play!!!
