The Odubel Herrera Boneheaded Thing of the Game
By Kyle Scott
Published:
Odubel Herrera did that thing again. That thing he does once per game– something dumb.
With the Phils trailing 10-1 in the eighth and continuing to do their best impression of a Malaysian airliner – everything started out fine, but quickly took a turn south* – Herrera caught a routine fly for the second out of the inning… and then tossed the ball into the stands:
The best part may of that – using the radio broadcast – may be Scott Franzke, who was presumably nodding off between pitches, not knowing the outs either. And that’ll do it for the Jays… pardon? He and LA had a nice chuckle about it. Go Phils.
*I asked Jim if it was “too soon.” He said depends on the joke. Blame him.
