Remind me the last time a major league baseball first baseman wasn't there for a cutoff from center or right field. Even guys who get put over there to be a statue for 3 games a year know to do that.

Well said. I mean all he had to do was be there. He could have had his eye closed and his hand down his pants and Aybar wouldn't have gone. I'm sure Ned Yost will have a discussion with Billy about that. And about not making an effort on a groundball to his right. And about how that follows an article where Billy throws a little attitude about being a DH.
