Willie Mays basket catch anybody?

Never seen it before, and I'm glad I have now.

I can think of worse things to be pissed off about.

"These athletes need to be grateful for what they have. They play a kid's game, so they need to just shut up about everything else, and just play the game."

shortly followed up by:

"These athletes need to stop acting like kids"

Saw it but still love to see it.

Players don't care about being shown up anymore. Bat flips, watching home runs, acting like buffoons in the dugout and plays like this are the new norm.

Stupid. Just creates an opportunity for an error. In the good old days his next at bat they would have knocked him down.

I'm disgusted at how flipping the ball up in the air like that added more time to the game!!!! We can't have waste like that!!!!! Next year, the MLB needs to add a time clock to force infielders to get the ball to first base as quickly as possible, so the precious young fanbase won't stop watching games.
