  • Summary

  • The Game That Ended on a BalkThis is the Past Ball Podcast, a podcast that gives you a baseball history moment and under the amount of time you can run around the bases. And I'm your host, Matt. The game that ended on a buck. One notable game that ended on a buck occurred on July 4th, 2018 between the Dodgers and the San Diego Padres. The game took place at Dodger Stadium in LA with the bottom of the ninth inning with the score tied 3 -3 and the Dodgers had runners on first and third bases with only one out. Padres pitcher Kirby Yates was on the mound facing Alex Verdugo. As Yates began his...pitch and the motion. He committed a buck causing the runner on third base Enrique Hernandez to score from third box. They're rare occurrences in baseball and can lead to confusion and controversy when they do occur, especially in crucial moments like the bottom of the ninth and a tied game. In this case, the buck resulted in a walk -off victory for the Dodgers ending the game with a four three final. The game is notable for ending in a buck and somewhat unusual in an unexpected way ending itself in baseball history.Beard Laws Beard Laws Podcast Tee - https://beardlaws.com/product/beard-laws-podcast-tee/Past Ball Podcast - https://beacons.ai/pastball
