Fausto Carmona Takes Hilarious Fall While Running to 1st

The Cleveland Indians were playing the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday when Indians starting pitcher Fausto Carmona dropped down a sacrifice bunt with a man on 1st in the top of the 3rd. The Reds went to 2nd and didn't get the out but that wasn't the hilarious part of the story. While Carmona was running to 1st he tripped over the chalk on the base path and fell right over the 1st base bag.


More national league baseball, please! I haven't laughed this hard since Obama passed healthcare and I realized I didn't have to get a job for the next 7 years.

If this isn't an argument for why the entire MLB should use the DH then I don't know what is. Besides the fact that Carmona might have to take a trip on the DL or the laughing aspect of this do we really want to see pitchers bat? How is that in any way fun or exciting?

In the bottom of the 5th inning of the Yankees vs. Mets game, SP Dillon Gee came to the plate with the bases loaded and 1 out of the Mets in a 0-0 game. He quickly grounded into an inning ending double play then gave up 4 runs in the top of the 6th. You can't tell me that's fun.
