It's not shown in the clips but I rewound the play on DVR because I turned my head for a second and then see Shildt out there in front of the ump with Yadi holding Martinez back so I wanted to see what happened. The ump has his hands up the whole time Martinez was going through his routine and then when hes basically in his batting stance looking at the pitcher he says play ball. The only thing is Martinez is just staring at the pitcher with his bat in between his legs. What exactly is he thinking?
The player off the top of my head that holds time every time he steps in the box is Braun but once hes done with his shit hes got his bat in position and hes ready to hit. I dont think I've ever seen a batter get set and then just sit there limp in the box. The whole thing was just weird.
