I know I've seen it online... the 7-5-2-9 put out where Laird was covering second on a rundown between third and home... Scivique tagged the guy and then threw to Laird to get the runner between 2nd and 3rd at 2nd.

There was a baseball guy talking about it on youtube, but I can't find it now.

Anyone have a link?

Dang I was digging for it like crazy.

There's a youtube video of some assistant coach at a college somewhere where he talks about the play but I can't find it again for the life of me.

Anyone remember who were were playing? I think it might have been in postseason play.

I think it was Florida.

Pic above is not it. In the play, Scivique tagged a runner near third, then fired to Laird at second for another tag on the runner going back to second.

I'm looking for a gif or video.

I can't look for the video now but if it helps you find it that play happened in the 8th inning of the SEC tournament game we lost against Florida on May 23, 2015.

I was in Hoover for that game. If you find the video please post it in this thread. I'd like to watch it. (It might be on the SEC's website since it was their event.)

Found the pbp.

quote:

* Big play. Schwarz doubles to left, scoring the first run. Then two baserunning errors on that same play, as Alonso is caught between third and home and tagged out in a rundown and then Schwarz came off to far and is tagged out at 2nd for out 2. After a Bader single that would have scored Schwarz perhaps, Devall in to pitch for LSU. Pop-up ends the top half.

Great play by the Tigers - terrible base running by UF

Because I was at the game I didn't see the TV coverage of it until now. Thank you!

I noticed the announcers didn't mention it was the LSU right fielder making the put out at second base to complete the double play.

Maybe they did mention it after the video clip ended, or maybe they didn't realize Laird was covering second base. That was a great moment in what turned out to be a disappointing day.

That's actually exactly why I was looking for the video... using it to illustrate to some 12 year olds that regardless of position there is a place for you on every play.

Laird had another one a couple years ago... routine, can of corn, fly ball to right (Laird was CF at the time) and at the last minute the RF lost the ball in the lights and bailed out. Laird was hustling over and made a diving catch for the out.

Those plays never happen 1,000 times... but that 1,001st time and you're there and it is a game changer.

Such a shame we didn't win the CWS last year. Fun bunch of guys to watch.

I was at that game, too, but that catch by Laird bailing out Sean McMullen who was playing right field was already posted on the Rant by the time I got home from the game, so I've seen it multiple times.

It was also a great call on the play by Jim Hawthorne. Aaron Nola's grin after the play was about as much emotion as he ever showed in a game when he was pitching.

Here is a link to it. It never gets old.
