5/25 cobs (kyle) vs giants (holland) 1:20 ABC7

[Bryants Disco Ball]

An at-bat that required contact against a batter who doesn't strike out, of course ends in a K.

[Sammy Sofa]

No comment.

[Agony and Ivy]

Jesus horsefeathering christ what a horrendous send

[Schwarber Fan]

A rare atrocious send by Butterfield.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Dude, what a stupid ass send.

[Liam Neeson]

I'm listening on the radio. How bad was that send?

 

Edit: Really bad I see

[NotSoSober]

Welcome back Wavin' Wendell

[Sammy Sofa]

[TMan92]

What the hell. This team finds new levels of stupidity on a daily basis.

[Cubswin11]

We’re such horsefeathering idiots

[Bryants Disco Ball]

When the runner gives up 10 feet before home because the ball already is waiting for him, is that incredibly embarrassing for a third base coach?

[Sammys Boombox]

Butterfield is awful

[Schwarber Fan]

Butterfield is awful

 

He's usually very good, no?

[Derwood]

It's fine, 1 run will definitely win this thing

[Sammys Boombox]

Butterfield is awful

No. He usually doesn’t send runners when he clearly should.

[Sammy Sofa]

This is a very, very dumb team.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Butterfield is awful

If I'm using the incredibly small sample size of today, he ranks below Stevie Wonder.

Well Almora was about 43 feet from home plate when Posey caught the ball. Joe, should've challenged.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Butterfield has been fine, that was a bad send. In general I'd rather get thrown out a bit more than leave runs/bases on the table, but that was just too shallow for being thrown out to be anything but an extremely likely outcome.

For anyone who didn't get to see the play, this is as classy a response as you could possibly read.

[Sammy Sofa]

Holland might as well have "He Dong Me" on the back of his jersey with what he's serving up. Crush this guy already.

Yeah overall don’t mind the gamble in general. Seemed overly risky from the radio and bord tho and also he’s gotta be aware how slow Almora is.

It wasn't even much about Almora, Williamson caught the ball on a hop like 20 feet from the infield, the only way a runner faster than Almora scores is if the throw forced Posey to field the ball on a hop two steps wide of the base.

Almora had to hold for a split second anyway after Rizzo hit it. Terrible send. Rizzo did get to second though, and Willson then hit what would have been a 6-4-3 DP

This is always my public service announcement to say that you can't just assume the same pitch, same contact from Willson.
