Jesuit picks off three Chalmette runners at first base in one inning

On Tuesday night, Jesuit and Chalmette played a District 9-5A baseball game at Noel Suarez Stadium. Jesuit won 4-2. It was, in many ways, an unremarkable game. But those in attendance will remember the bottom of the fourth inning for a long time.

With his team leading 2-0, Jesuit starter Cody Migliore walked leadoff man Alex Powell, who was replaced on the base paths by courtesy runner Blake Walker. Migliore threw over to first baseman Dylan Weston, who tagged out Walker for the first out of the inning. Then Migliore walked Austin Bergeron and made another pickoff move to record the second out. Finally, Migliore walked Connor Danna, and once again, he caught the runner leading off first base. Three walks, three pickoffs, side retired.

“Baseball's a great game,” Chalmette Coach Lyall Barwick said. “You can come to the park on any given day and see something you've never seen before.”
