ramssuperbowl99 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Yes this deserves its own thread. Don't you dare lock it. https://mediadownloads.mlb.com/mlbam/mp4/2018/05/16/2051086783/1526503163434/asset_2500K.mp4 After the game, Bartolo said: Quote "The important thing is we won the game and I was able to get the out," Colon said through an interpreter. "He got me on the side. It was not in the middle. And I have a big belly, so I can [handle] it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renndawg37 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Did his belly absorb it for the out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other best part is Harold Reynolds being like "he got his glove on it....he didn't get his glove on it." Other best part is Bartolo grabbing his belly. Real best part is that ball getting sucked in like Bartolo's gut is a dying star. Everything about this play is beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playmaker8267 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 This is what happens when you relentlessly work out your abdominal muscles. Props to Bartolo for grinding in the gym and taking care of his body; it helped him avoid an injury here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small Town Values Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 If the ball had actually got stuck in his belly is it a catch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, he could always just grab it from his belly and it would be right? Since it didnt hit the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like if a ball is deflected off one player and caught by another, it's a catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucketheadsdad Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 So it was technically a 1.5-1-3 put out, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
