When I was playing, I would have fell victim to that quite often. Thank goodness for the DH.
My College coach had two explanations for my surprising lack of foot speed:
"You're running too long in the same place"
or
"You got square wheels"
It was said that I had all the flash of an oil painting ; that, if the world ever ran out of kinetic energy, I would be the last one to be blamed.
I was slooooooow.
Now that I'm retired, I'm no longer slow - I'm stationary.
