Probably in college I had like 4 put outs (as catcher) picking runners off of bases.
(In college) striking out 11 in a game (we lost).
Funny story (In college)... I called for a pickoff attempt at the 1st base runner. Only problem was... first baseman didn't get the signal.
Pitch came and I slung the ball over for the pickoff attempt. 1st baseman had no clue. The runner had that dear in headlights look as the ball was coming. Had the 1st baseman caught the ball and put the tag down the runner was dead as a door knob. However with the 1st baseman not looking/expecting... the ball went straight for the runner. He tried to jump out of the way but that ball found a nice spot right on his leg.
I felt sorry for the kid as I thought I broke his leg. Never knew the results of the injury.
1st baseman was pulled from the game.
