He is definitely a Houdini. However in the first clip of him, he should've been called out because he went onto the grass to avoid the tag. But was still fun to watch.
That first play is just off the charts! I can believe that he played football. His "Hey man, I'm sorry I just made you look like a fool in front of all these people--nothing personal" smile is priceless! 1:36 The only time in my entire life that I have LOL uncontrollably watching baseball! A pickle between first and second becomes a pickle between third and home...and they _don't_ make the out! It's so unexpected that it's _hilarious_!
You have to get past the last guy who has the ball, right before it's thrown to him, and then dive under to avoid the tag. It's not nearly as easy as these guys make it look.
It was his turn AFTER the pitcher (notice he was on the way down the line), Siegrist fucked-up plain and simple. Again as a Cardinal fan, I hated to see it, but this is why pitchers need to take fielding practice.
Probably the worst thing about the Harrison rundown against the Mets was that the Pirates had men on 3rd and 2nd with no outs and they still couldn't score that inning.
I love your videos! You do such a good job, and you make at such a high quality! Keep up the good work I loved this video and every other video you make.
What? :))))) so crazy from Vietnam.. In Vietnam, we don't play base ball but I like this sport😚 although I don't know play but I know rules of base ball
John: hold my beer Jimmy: okay. John: how do they escape these John: CHEATERS John: gimme my beer back. Jimmy: sorry drank it all during that 20 minutes of you asking weird questions. John: gonna go get a new beer
Here's a question, in the first video why isn't Hamilton out since he came off the bag and is to the left of the foul line while the first basemen is touching the base?
Ben Gladieux because he beat the first base man to the bag, so the force play is off now. If the runner comes off the base in fair territory, he's live but you have to tag him at that point.
So in theory if the first baseman would have tagged him for the split second he was off the bag, he would have been out. If the first baseman didn't just leave his glove on the bag and tried to rage him. He woulda been out
You're right, he was more than 3 feet outside. Part of the grass was okay, but he went too far into the grass. This video has a much better angle to confirm he went outside the baseline: m.mlb.com/video/topic/6479266/v34094561/nympit-harrison-advances-to-third-on-long-rundown Go to 2.20 of the video. The helmet on the ground is a great reference. Let's be conservative and establish the baseline as even with the left edge of the helmet (it could be considered further left than that). At 2.25 of the video (when he's lying on grass), you can count 5 helmet-lengths to where Harrison ends up from the baseline. A helmet is at least 8 inches long, probably close to a foot. Another reference is 3B, which is 15 inches across. Conservatively, the baseline is even with the middle of that base (it could even be the left edge). Harrison ends up at least 3 bases to the right of that reference point. Finally, freeze the video at 2.23 when Harrison is diving toward the grass. Note how he ends up nearly an entire body length away from the baseline.
DAK4Blizzard the thing is, he gave up on the tag by the point his leg had gotten closest to leaving that baseline, since no tag was currently being attempted, there was no base line. And he got his arm back into previous baseline before his leg left.
Jordan Duffy It doesn't matter whether Tejada gave up on following Harrison outside the baseline. (Granted, he should've just made the extra effort to actually tag him to avoid putting the call on the umpire's judgement.) To exaggerate my point, Harrison would not be absolved of leaving the baseline if he fled 15 feet to the outfield or pitcher's mound, and Tejada decided not to follow him. Whether a tag is attempted *after* the runner is outside an established baseline is moot. But you may have a point if all Harrison has to do is have any portion of his body (such as a hand) within 3 feet of the baseline. I'd still be very skeptical of that, especially because Harrison brings his hands back to his body right after the dive, probably making that concept moot as well. But at least it would allow for more leeway in judgement.
Anyone mind to explain what is happening at 4:12 please? I don't know much about Baseball so i don't get what's going on on this one since the runner is touching the guy who got the ball before touching a base?
Pretty sure it's because they called interference or obstruction because a player without the ball stood in the runners way blocking his path to first base which you're not supposed to do. The runner was just going to accept the out at that point, but the ump called interference or obstruction, which made him safe.
This is a stupid question probably, but it looks like the taggers or the team base, I dont know baseball. It look likes they not even trying to tag them, like are they running fast because it looks slow like they are not even sprinting. When I was in Grade 5 to 8, I played baseball, and I hit the ball, way over the fence, but it was just outside local baseball field
As a non-baseball fan, I don't get where you can run and where you can't run between 1st and 3rd base. I had assumed 'on the grass' was out of bounds for base running, but apparently not, according to the rundown at 6:30. They keep talking about staying within the 'base line', but what's that? I don't see any clear boundaries. Is it just eyeballed? How is this game played? Are the rules made up as you go along? Is a protractor involved? EDIT: nm, I read the thread below and I still don't really get it. :D
There are no "established" boundaries once you pass first base until you reach third. The ruling states that the runner establishes the baseline by running in a path toward the intended base and that baseline is confirmed by the infielder when a tag is attempted. The reason is because when a play rounds first the personal momentum of the player can do a lot of things. The "open baseline" concept is there so that runners don't injure themselves trying to follow some arbitrary line drawn on the ground. The problem comes into play when you have a run down and the players start to bend those lines. When a tag is attempted it establishes a "direct" route between the runner and his intended target NOT from one base to another. Base running rules are some of the hardest and most misunderstood rules in baseball. (with the "ground rule/book rule double being a very close second.)
Josh Harrison has some of the most insane rundowns I've ever seen. He is incredible
That last clip sheesh...Harrison broke the Catcher's Ankles😳😂
Alright, one more baseball-play-montage, and THEN I'll get back to work...
Sean Cook for me sleep
The sad thing is that I'm doing that right now e except with sleep

MANCHESTER UNITED thanks for the fun facts? I don’t remember anyone slandering soccer.

Josh Harrison is amazing. I love seeing him in those run downs.
He is definitely a Houdini. However in the first clip of him, he should've been called out because he went onto the grass to avoid the tag. But was still fun to watch.
Just because you go into the grass, it doesn't mean you're out 😒
Three feet not on the grass three feet into the grass
So he is safe
Shemar Green yeh
Josh Harrison is amazing, I love it when somebody is miles ahead of most others at a particular discipline in a sport.

Josh Harrison the Pickle King.
Pickle king indeed
Gotta big wang too.
P.H. Resh that’s why he’s called the pickle king O_O
P.H. Resh wooahhh buddy
RapIsDeadly The Escape Artist would be a good one as well
Harrison baseball IQ 1000 at 7:44... he knew he couldn’t get back to second so he took his chances in an inevitable rundown
"How did Hayward stay safe?"
Because its against the Marlins
Yea that was before he joined the cubs and I never watched a play of his before he was a cubbies player and how did he pull that off
Hes such a good player yet so under rated, 5 GOLD GLOVES
I’m going to assume the Marlins are like the Cleveland browns
@@Thundernoob98 They are EXACTLY like the cleveland browns
@@Thundernoob98 havent been good for around 20 years then suddenly make it to the playoffs
The josh harrison one in extras was absolutely fantastical
6:45 clip is unreal
elsamso Dude clip it where it fucking stars, you dumbass.

You could step into the grass like that ? Thought you had to stay in the dirt .
6:51 Love the fans reaction.
@2:15 lol whats that weird ass handshake
Wth😂😂😂
Gay lovers
Bruh i seen that shit & aiint know what to think
WTF was that 😂
The last one Josh Harrison snap the catchers ankles lol
5:00 Bro are these announcers high? You didnt see the players get directly in his path? L M A O
5:23 Never seen a baseball player called for an illegal screen before. 100% the right call there. Textbook obstruction.
I can actually hear Harrison's 3rd base coach..."You ever pull that bullsh*t again..."
2 weeks later...
"If you EVER pull that bullsh*t again..."
So the key to getting out of a rundown seems to be to fall/dive on the ground.....
Kevin Kabara v
You have to get past the last guy who has the ball, right before it's thrown to him, and then dive under to avoid the tag. It's not nearly as easy as these guys make it look.
Cut back as soon as they commit to trying to tag you
Still not easy cause for few who succeded a lot fail.
2:51
Molina is a hell of a catcher but he should've been the one at first instead of the pitcher
It was his turn AFTER the pitcher (notice he was on the way down the line), Siegrist fucked-up plain and simple. Again as a Cardinal fan, I hated to see it, but this is why pitchers need to take fielding practice.

I don't even know the rules to baseball but by watching all these vids I've gathered a pretty good idea
“You can’t even do that in a Mercedes.”
“You cant even do that in a mercedes” 0:42 🤣🤣🤣
Harrison's rundown escapes are hilarious to me for some reason
5:49 ball scratcher
Hayden Adams wow that guy has some balls to do it on live tv
Tucking in his jersey
never heard of josh harrison until now, what an amazing runner
I'm a dyed in the wool Cardinal fan - but you have to give Josh Harrison credit where it's due - that guy is heads up.
This is the single most fun thing to have happen during a game. Its just funny no matter the outcome
those were some pretty cool dodges

when you think someone did something illegal in a game just keep playing until the play is over lololol
7:22 the look on the catchers face says it all....
John: hold my beer
Jimmy: okay.
John: how do they escape these
John: CHEATERS
John: gimme my beer back.
Jimmy: sorry drank it all during that 20 minutes of you asking weird questions.
John: gonna go get a new beer
6:35 WOW ! this is really great escape !
7:25 he looks so proud
It's a tie game in the 10th
Nuff said
Dick move by the first baseman. You're not doing a basketball screen. 4:22 Beautiful call by the ump!
Man I haven't seen baseball before, but it looks like lot of fun
greatest players of the year!!!!!!!!!!
The last one I was like "OHHHHHHH" cause I play basketball, and its a lot more hype when someone gets crossed
i love the steelers.
Am I the only one on torris side? That dude was absolutely in his way
Text book obstruction...
This video was awsome
2nd baseman thinking he got him , plays casually
5 seconds later "he did it again"
Harrison #5 That was the Best ONE!!!
Billy Hamilton might actually be a base running god for 2023
5:50 what was that man doing in the back?😂😂
these are really addictive~
Their tags are so funny and at the same time cool
Wow so amazing!
That was pretty funny 1:43.
Feels like this type of video has been made 30 times
Kreamations it dose
Amazing video as always!
Billy Hamilton is a literal god at baseball
Certified brothas in this video. LOL!
Looks like a fun game!
Harrison can pivot so fast I thought he was a ballerina
Josh Harrison is the best base runner in my opinion
imagine usain bolt in this situation. He will just be like backpeddaling and chilling and easily reaching the next base.
greatest players of the year
waiting for javy baez’ play today against the pirates
Josh Harrison is more dangerous in a rundown than anywhere else
That first play was actually out, because the runner was out of the base path. And 7:30 too. You can't touch the infield grass.
Uhhh...yes you can...the only rule with base paths is that a runner can’t deviate by 3 feet during a tag attempt...that’s it...
Here's a question, in the first video why isn't Hamilton out since he came off the bag and is to the left of the foul line while the first basemen is touching the base?
Ben Gladieux because he beat the first base man to the bag, so the force play is off now. If the runner comes off the base in fair territory, he's live but you have to tag him at that point.

“You can’t even do that in a Mercedes “ lmfao 🤣 what the fuck
How is harrison not out of the baseline on the mets one
Rifty Can I Have Your Number he was they just didn't call it
Damon watt no, I hate the pirates but that was the tight call, the baseline is established one the tag is attempted
