It takes a moment of luck for a one-in-a-million bizarre play to happen in baseball. Every fan of the game has seen at least one unbelievable incident that they don’t think will happen again. Most recently, something similar happened during a Minor League Baseball game, when a catcher made a bizarre defensive mistake. Fans were merciless and mocked the catcher for his egregious play.

It is an unforgiving experience to be on the wrong side of a defensive error that is rarely seen. But this catcher was not alone, as his pitcher received some flak for the incident as well.

Minor League catcher loses baseball on the foul line and gives away 2 runs

Minor League is where baseball players develop and show off their skills to gain an MLB opportunity. But most recently, Hudson Valley Renegades catcher Antonio Gomez caught attention for all the wrong reasons. During a game against Greenville Drive, he dropped a throw from right field, which landed on the foul line. This allowed the runner to complete a run and reach home plate safely. Gomez then couldn’t find the ball as it blended in with the chalk of the foul line. This, in turn, allowed the runner from second to pass third and score a second run. Jomboy Media shared a video of this unprecedented play on Twitter.

In a Tweet, they said, “Ball blends in with the foul line so the catcher can’t find it as a run scores 🤯”. But the catcher is not the only one at fault for this play. Both his pitcher and first baseman seemed to have a clear view of the ball and could have run and picked it up to prevent the second runner from scoring.
