April 17, 20223 yr The slide was legal. But he came in hard, with a leg in the air, slid past the bag, and it looked like his left hand may have connected with Daly’s crotchal region. Daly had every right to be mad and say something, and the other dude should expect it after a slide like that. If he just goes to the dugout it’s over and everything is fine. But he had to run his mouth …

I thought it was dirty at first, but the slide was clean. The throw location brought Daly right into his path. He didn't have his leg up until he turned to the side after hitting Daly and the bag.

What is he supposed to do, slide with arms pinned to his side and not try to protect his body? You can clearly see in the 2nd photo his arm is up into Daly's shoulder/chest before the collision. Daly then flips over the top of him. How people think he made a deliberate nut shot in the split second of an unpredictable collision where the guy flies over his head, is beyond me. It's a completely normal reaction to keep the arm up in front of you and push the person about to teabag you away.

Not a thing wrong with it. His foot comes up at the end of the slide having gone over the base, which protrudes quite a bit. He was not trying to spike Daly. Not in the slightest. ‘All the hullabaloo was nothing more than pent up angst between the two teams and the slide was a pin juuuuust big enough to pop the balloon. That’s it. That’s all there was.

April 17, 20223 yr Also note he did slide past the base but not so far that he was off of it. Normal slide, unfortunate result, tempers flare. It happens.

Disagree that it was a normal slide on a stolen base attempt. No reason to slide that far past the base. Not saying it was dirty, just not normal. To break up a DP, yeah. But not on a steal. Also got a kick out of KS announcers saying he was trying to apologize to Daly, when he was very clearly saying "Fuck you!"

Lots of guys slide over the bag so that their momentum gets any slowed sooner than necessary. the apology was when he grabbed his arm before he started jogging off, thinking he was out. Daly said something, he turns around, and then starts with the fuck yous to daly and/or faltine.
April 17, 20223 yr … and has anyone noted Daly’s left knee is on the ground in the baseline? Yet, he’s untouchable according to the Orange Tinted crew? I think we have a pair of mouthy middle IF who need to play more and talk less.

He originally did try to apologize, then Daly said something to him as he was walking away and the dude clapped back with “Fuck you!”.

April 17, 20223 yr Daly is straddling the base with his knee and his leg. Slide was late and hard. Daly had a right to be pissed. Ksu dude should have just walked off even if Daly said something which probably happened simultaneously with the "apology".
April 17, 20223 yr Daly would have deserved every bit of the runner’s spikes blocking the base path like that. Clean slide.

April 17, 20223 yr It's over. If Pierce had recognized that Hansen was done in the 6th inning Thursday, it might brave gone differently. But he didn't., And it didn't. But hey we're 2-0 in the last two years in games against the Powercats when there are ejections.
April 17, 20223 yr I'm just happy that this slide discussion has distracted me from the fact that we lost 2 games to fucking Kansas St.
April 17, 20223 yr Nothing more Surly than 30 posts on Easter Sunday debating a largely inconsequential slide almost 24 hours after the game ended.
