A line drive off of the shortstop's glove, casey stopped and then started running again and was thrown out at first before he crossed the base in a close play! He must have thought that the ss caught the ball! The hawk said he had never seen that in over 4000 broadcasts. Me neither.

Sorry. Actually it should have been SIX-SEVEN-THREE. I parrotted the hawk, but it actually hit the shortstop's glove. My bad!

I thought I remember Dave Winfield years ago almost threw out a really slow runner at first from the outfield. Missed it by a split second.

....Winfield may very well have thrown out a Rusty Staub type runner..this was a first in MLB history because it was off the infieders glove......And yes Cappy..the announcers pointed out Casey is a hustler, he just thought the ball was caught

6-7-3 putout. Casey hit the ball off 3rd baseman Joe Crede's glove into left field.

Inexcuseable for Casey to not realize the ball was hit into left field.

Re: A FIVE-SEVEN-THREE PUTOUT IN DETROIT!

i can do one better

i am umping some adult rec league softball game a few years ago

a fly ball into short center with a runner on 1st and less than 2 outs. the CF bobbles and bobbles and bobbles it and until he finally drops the ball. but by the time he drops it he is standing about 5 feet from 2nd base so he calmly picks up the ball and steps on 2nd base for the almost unheard of

8U play @ 2B
