Dale Murphy was a catcher with the yips. The Braves moved him to Center Field.

It was Mackey Sasser catcher for the Mets in the late 80's. He had to double pump to throw the ball back to the pitcher.

Well done, sir. This is the one I was trying to fish out of the depths of my brain.

Still too soon...



(Not too soon to talk about Lidge. Too soon to speculate on if the ball Pujols hit against him in 2005 has landed yet....)

Apparently any has been second baseman who played the end of their career for the Yankees.

As someone that has coached and played baseball this is hard to watch

4 minute at bat with catcher having throwing problems
ETA Umpire also having problems. Can't dust off home plate, hands catcher the brush and has him do it.

Jordan Romera at LSU a couple of hears ago was terrible. Waved his glove over a bunch of times and double pumped it back to the pitcher.
