Gio Urshela walks on 3 balls, a breakdown

bump here comes the second pitch of the

at-bat

breaking ball fouls it down the third

base line so we're at one and one

now next pitch nice pitch funky

one and two is the count giovanni which

no one calls and just calls him geo

fouls that one back

count is one and two next pitch it's

high great eye

two and two now we go one more pitch

now that's foul back just staying alive

staying alive

yeah staying alive another foul ball the

count remains two and two

the next one fouled back again geo

having himself in that bat trying to get

the lead off runner on in a tie game

late

ball three geo says yeah i've done it i

have walked

and he runs the first base and no one

stops them and the pitcher just keeps

going

and gleber the on deck circle he just

starts walking to the plate and both

managers don't say anything and what the

hell is that

that was three balls now i think the one

two pitch is the cause for all the

confusion because look how the umpire

reacts

he doesn't throw both hands up and say

foul ball

he just kind of raises that left hand

while searching for a new ball

and i don't know if that's an official

motion or not but i think this is the

cause for all the confusion because

what if that umpire called that a ball

not a foul ball and then he was yelling

and showing a different count

the entire time that may be the case

because look at this

it's on its way it's on its way at this

point

you'd be like wow how is he going to

catch up to that he's pretty behind

and then the barrel comes around and

then this next frame

is the weird one so it looks like he hit

the ball there looks like it never

reached the glove

but one thing's for certain the umpire

sure can't see that

especially how fast it's going the

gloves in front of his face

so maybe he thought he heard leather and

not wood and he didn't call this a foul

ball

and that's why everyone just thought the

count

was three and two because he called this

a ball which would make it two and two

and then you got all the foul balls and

then eventually the walk because no one

reacted

after the game they asked gio did you

know you walked on three pitches and he

said that he

knew but nobody else knew and i think

it's because

geo is the only person that knew that

that pitch hit his bat

and no one else did so congrats sergio

o'rourchella

you know really good secret by him

didn't hit my bat didn't hit my bat i'm

on first
