    Baseball

    A couple of baseball images from a game I covered this summer. In the first shot I was amazed the second baseman was able to go over his head to take the throw from the catcher and in one move bring it down to make the tag, all while at the top of his jump. If I tried that I'd be in traction for a week.

    Thanks. The best part of the first image is the tape wrapped around the toe of his right foot. Gotta love it.
