THE strangest play of the MLB season may've happened in the first recreation of the yr.
The MLB season kicked off in Seoul, South Korea with a matchup between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres and featured a head-scratching moment.
It was a decent recreation, with the groups being tied 2-2 within the eight inning, but the Dodgers have been threatening with two runners on base with just one out.
Nevertheless, Dodgers second baseman Gavin Lux hit a ground ball directly to Jake Cronenworth, the Padres first baseman, which appeared tailored for a double play.
Because the ball rolled to Cronenworth, it seemed like he couldn't handle the grounder which allowed the Dodgers to score the game-winning run.
Upon nearer look of the play though, Cronenworth did nothing mistaken. In truth, he received extremely unfortunate in a rarely-seen play in baseball.
Because the ball rolled into his glove, it broke proper by means of the webbing and stored on going into the outfield. While Cronenworth handled the ball correctly, it was his gear that failed.
The Dodgers went on to win the sport 5-2 after the important gear failure and Cronenworth was charged with a troublesome error.
He addressed the error after the game, candidly saying "It sucks."
"It might have gone via innings earlier than that," Cronenworth stated.
"It just happened at that state of affairs, and it sucks. I assumed it was a simple double play."
Even Dodgers supervisor Dave Roberts understood how unfortunate the error was in his postgame evaluation.
<!-- End of Brightcove Player --> "That's a troublesome error for Cro," Roberts stated.
"Fortunate break for us. You bought to take them when you will get them."
MLB fans have been baffled by the gear failure, and pulled out jokes evaluating it to Fanatics' poor high quality uniforms this yr.
"Is Fanatics making gloves now too?" one fan stated.
"Is that still an error?" another fan requested.
"As a Dodger fan, I'll take it. However it's unfair to Cronenworth that it gets referred to as an error," a third fan stated.
"That's some significantly freakish dangerous luck for the Padres right there," a fourth fan stated.
The Padres and Dodgers will face off for yet one more recreation in South Korea on Thursday before returning to Spring Coaching.
The official MLB opening day is March 28.
