Because you don't know anything about playing outfield. With those crazy corners, he has to anticipate which way the ball will carom. Overrun and overplay it, and it's an inside the park home run. Don't second guess elite athletes. He actually should be commended for his approach to this ball. Held him to a triple, not a HR on a bad carom.

I'm a huge sports fan and no professional player should show minimal effort at any point, especially baseball players considering what their workload consists of. They have to bat a minimum of 3 times a game, for 4-6 games a week, during a 6-7 month period and could go multiple days without even touching the ball when on defense. The fact some of them show such a lack of effort whenever the spotlight is on them is disrespectful to the sport, their fellow athletes and the professional sports world in general.

And so his "hustle", or lack of it, meant what? Absolutely nothing. In my opinion, he was checking up to read the carom off of the oblique walls in the outfield, hopefully preventing an inside the park home run by overplaying the ball. Too fast of a pursuit, too close to the carom, missing it means an automatic HR. Played it conservatively, held him to a triple. Blame the pitcher for the gap shot and the two run homer and the loss.

@@bigtalk2598 there are times when an outfielder may want to play a ball conservatively so as to not have it carom back past him. this was most certainly not one of those times. that ball was clearly past him and rolling into the corner. he just didn't want to strain himself. he was being lazy. we are essentially giving him the benefit of the doubt and calling it laziness. because if he had in fact misread that ball so badly as to think the proper play was to slow down, then that is actually way worse than one fluke instance of laziness as it would show him to be a far inferior outfielder. so any Upton fans, if such a thing exists, should all be agreeing that it was laziness and not a total lack of awareness of how to play his position

I will never understand the ego of some players. When I was taught, the shortstop and center outfield has priority on catching the ball. If 2 players call for the ball, it automatically goes to the shortstop or center. This way there will never be confusion or errors

The umps completely missed that call at 3:32. The announcer says Fryman is OK to run there but he's dead wrong. You have to be inside the runners box (between those two white lines) especially when you interfere with the play (and he did ... hit him square in the back). With all that said, the Yanks should have ran after the ball and played it as if it were still live after that (the coach could argue that call after the play).

One was clearly an infield fly rule, but also if it wasn't called and he dropped or misses it, he could have doubled them up. He played that perfectly. And it looked hilarious too. Kinda like Jokic playing basketball. "I got this, it's nothing." lol

Can't really blame Lee here, it was hit right to him. To me, it's not really a "low effort" play if you get the job done, it's when you fail but could have succeeded if you tried, or when you give up entirely without trying.

Some of these were less a lack of effort than a brain fart. When you play 162 games in a season over multiple seasons, you will absolutely have a brain fart at one time or another, and forget your situations. But with Upton, that dude had his coaches on him all the time for lack of hustle. That triple was not the first instance by far. Which is probably what REALLY made Longoria pissed.
