Well said. The fact that you had to even take time to explain that to him

gives us confirmation of his understanding of how that play transpired from start to finish. And to add to that, 3 people liked his post. One even commented making the "easy play there (which was what?)." Another commented on remembering an error he made as a freshmen?? Bizarre. That play happens to first basemen on teams (as you know) 15-20 times in a season (the swipe tag as you mentioned). Total freak play. And to add in the "forgiveness" aspect also confirms a moral compass that is severely misguided, especially given a 20-21 year young man trying to make a play to help his team in a tight situation. One that he has demonstrated he can make. Don't know of anyone associated with VT that doesn't feel for both Garrett and Carson.

It’s baseball played by students, and that’s “unforgivable?”**

Agree. I doubt he had a play at 3rd. 1st or possibly home were only options**

He's human. He made a mistake. A freak injury resulted.

Not intentional, and also not smart. OP is spot on, DMart has taken the
