Everyone involved , except maybe the other runner, did something stupid during that play. Baez not only kept retreating to home as if that should have done anything and stopping to celebrate when the runner got home before realizing he still needed to actually get to first for the run to count, the 2B not covering when it was obvious Craig wasn't going back, the catcher making a poor throw to give them another base. It's all a shit show.

I umpired baseball and softball for 30 years. The absolute dumbest baserunning play I witnessed was in a men's softball league. There was a runner at first base with no one out. The batter hit a line drive. The shortstop made a fine leaping catch for an out. The runner at first base had left the base as soon as the ball was hit. The shortstop tried to double the runner off by throwing to first base but the throw was offline. The ball bounced into the bench area out of play. The runner slid back into first base. I was the base umpire. I called him safe--a very easy call. Then I ruled the ball was dead because it had rolled into the bench area. By rule, I awarded the runner two bases on the overthrow rule. The puzzled runner looked at me and asked, "Do I get to go to third base on that play?" I said yes. So the runner ran directly across the diamond--he could have shaken hands with the pitcher--without even considering touching second base! Everyone one his team gasped. The defensive team properly appealed that the runner had missed second base. His teammates were not pleased with him, to say the least.

I been watching a lot of sports a lot of time and I think that's the dumbest play in any sport I've ever seen on the pure simplicity of what needed to be done, the insane failure to remember his job, and then his team-mates screwing up so that instead of being just a dumb play that got rectified with no damage, the catcher and the other fielder managed to screw up the second throw to first and let in a run + an additional base. The only ones that come close are all those soccer goals where a player kicks it backward to the goalkeeper but the keeper misses blocking it and scores an OG. But that one he literally just needs to take a stepbackward and it's over.

It was absolutely a smart play. The baserunning issue was a mechanical issue - his pace was thrown off because he had to skip over the ball as he ran. Once his pace is off, it's hard to land your feet where they belong on the run. He didn't get thrown out, though - the negative IQ play would be if he'd kept going.

@TrueSbStar the catcher might have known but he couldn't throw to first as no one was covering it until way too late. Then again, the catcher could have just tagged the batter-runner when they got real close. I guess instinct, at that point just caused the catcher to turn to the runner scoring. You kinda can't blame him.... I just watched again. The batter-runner never got close enough to the catcher to be tagged by him.

But that didn’t last either cuz he wasn’t resigned for the 2022 season and is currently a free agent. No one’s heard from him since lol Edit: In June 2022, Craig went back to school at Wake Forest University to complete his degree and is currently on their coaching staff.

What about the long single where the batter homered but was called out for passing a runner at first base? The runner thought the homer was a fly out and returned to first to tag up, but the batter ran past him. I think it was Max Muncy who had his home run turned into a single and baserunning out. All the runners ahead of him were allowed to score, though.

That reminds me of how The Harvey Haddix Game ended. That's the infamous game where Haddix pitched a perfect game for 12 innings and lost 1-0... but it really should have been 3-0. In the bottom of the 13th, Felix Mantilla reached on an error. Eddie Mathews put down a sacrifice bunt, advancing Mantilla to second. Hank Aaron was intentionally walked. First and second, one out, Joe Adcock up. Adcock crushes a ball over the fence in right-center field for what SHOULD be a three-run homer. But Aaron doesn't get a good view of the ball, and when he sees Mantilla cross the plate, he thinks the game is over and goes straight to the dugout. Adcock continues around the bases, but is ruled out for passing Aaron on the base path. Net result: RBI double, Mantilla's run is the only one that actually scores, 1-0 final.

I umpired baseball and softball for 30 years. The absolute dumbest baserunning play I witnessed was in a men's softball league. There was a runner at first base with no one out. The batter hit a line drive. The shortstop made a fine leaping catch for an out. The runner at first base had left the base as soon as the ball was hit. The shortstop tried to double the runner off by throwing to first base but the throw was offline. The ball bounced into the bench area out of play. The runner slid back into first base. I was the base umpire. I called him safe--a very easy call. Then I ruled the ball was dead because it had rolled into the bench area. By rule, I awarded the runner two bases on the overthrow rule. The puzzled runner looked at me and asked, "Do I get to go to third base on that play?" I said yes. So the runner ran directly across the diamond--he could have shaken hands with the pitcher--without even considering touching second base! Everyone one his team gasped. The defensive team properly appealed that the runner had missed second base. His teammates were not pleased with him, to say the least.
Very funny
So the runner doubled himself out. Ouch.
Honestly that just sounds like not knowing the rules. An amateur softball player I can forgive for not knowing the rules. A Major League player, however....
@@psymar THIS.
reading this as a non-baseball player is like reading Chinese
As a Pirates fan that play by Will Craig will always be etched in my memory...still can't believe that happened.
I would've DFAd him
@@wavystars5075 They did dfa him lol
@@wavystars5075 within a month he was traded to a Korean team and now he's not playing at all
I been watching a lot of sports a lot of time and I think that's the dumbest play in any sport I've ever seen on the pure simplicity of what needed to be done, the insane failure to remember his job, and then his team-mates screwing up so that instead of being just a dumb play that got rectified with no damage, the catcher and the other fielder managed to screw up the second throw to first and let in a run + an additional base. The only ones that come close are all those soccer goals where a player kicks it backward to the goalkeeper but the keeper misses blocking it and scores an OG. But that one he literally just needs to take a stepbackward and it's over.
@@bryanflynn2855one single brain fart can’t be the reason
Sosa missing the base and returning is both a bad moment and a good moment. Bad because he missed, but good because he didn't try to just keep running and then get called out on appeal.
yeah that's not low iq that's just bad baserunning. low iq would've been trying to pretend it didn't happen lol
It looks like the top of his foot DID touch it just barely... If someone is yelling to go back though, that really makes it confusing!
It was absolutely a smart play. The baserunning issue was a mechanical issue - his pace was thrown off because he had to skip over the ball as he ran. Once his pace is off, it's hard to land your feet where they belong on the run. He didn't get thrown out, though - the negative IQ play would be if he'd kept going.
The Will Craig play, no matter how many times you watch, is unbelievable lmao
1:18. I absolutely love how the first base coach was on high alert and handled the situation. They got an extra base out of it and the next batter singled home Baez for a run. Outstanding.
I still don't understand why when the first baseman caught the ball and Baez started moving backwards, the 1B didn't just step on first base for the out...
@@dentonyoung4314 Complete lack of situational awareness.
@@dentonyoung4314 Not only that, he doubled down on stupid. He still could've just tagged the runner instead of tossing the ball to the catcher. There were 2 outs, so it wouldn't matter if the runner crosses the plate before you tag the batter out- the run wouldn't count. The catcher could've tagged him too instead of trying to tag the runner from third.
@@dentonyoung4314 He tried to be cheeky is why. And got played like a fiddle.
Rizzo laughing his ass off in the dugout is so good
Steele was equally as good lol
I always love seeing the guy practically at home plate calling "safe" and then going "Oh, I guess I had better run to first".
Will Craig embarrassed himself in front of the ten people in attendance. 😂
He embarrassed himself? That's an understatement lol
@@afdkj And where is he now?
@@afdkj "Living a privileged white male life at Wake Forest" What kind of reply is that?!
@@afdkj Why are you bringing race into it?
Great... Got to relive Aaron Hicks pouting about not catching a fly ball.😅.. meanwhile the batter is running.
While this is a funny video, unlike other similar videos, you allow the gags to play out rather than cut them off abruptly and go to another. It's quite good.
On that batter-runner running away from first and then back to home, they still had a chance to negate that runner scoring if someone had covered first base on the eventual errant throw.
At first I was like "okay, the 1B didn't want the runner to score while he went to tag the bag, I kinda see how this happened" but then I realized -- yeah, there were already two outs!!
@anewt72690 yes, Even if he had tagged the batter- runner after the run scored I think it still counts as a force-out and the run doesn't count.
Defense must've lost track of how many outs there were. Well, more broadly, the defense forgot how to play baseball, but you would only be concerned with the runner on third if you thought there were less than two outs.
until there's a play or runner reaches first, that run doesn't even count lmao. i don't think baez or the first baseman realized that.
@TrueSbStar the catcher might have known but he couldn't throw to first as no one was covering it until way too late. Then again, the catcher could have just tagged the batter-runner when they got real close. I guess instinct, at that point just caused the catcher to turn to the runner scoring. You kinda can't blame him.... I just watched again. The batter-runner never got close enough to the catcher to be tagged by him.
that's tough to call Arroyo's play a 0-IQ play, he just lost the ball. The panic makes it look extra bad but still.
For sure. It happens.
Yeah, and he's an infielder by trade. Boston tried him out there for a little while to keep his bat in the lineup, but in his whole career he hasn't spent 20 games in the outfield.
@@fletchermaxwell exactly. Guy was in trouble from the start.
For anyone curious about Will Craig, we was designated for assignment by Pittsburg on June 4th, 2021. A month or so later he was picked up by the Kiwoom Heroes, a South Korean baseball team. But that didn’t last either cuz he wasn’t resigned for the 2022 season and is currently a free agent. No one’s heard from him since lol Edit: In June 2022, Craig went back to school at Wake Forest University to complete his degree and is currently on their coaching staff.
"Coaching staff".... hope he's not coaching first base, LMAO.
Sheesh, and he was a first round pick.
Man that sucks when you hit a home run which is the greatest feeling for any hitter, but then you're tagged out because you forgot to do something you were taught at t ball. Always remember to touch all the bases.
the pirates play is the dumbest play in professional sports history
Jim Marshall's wrong way "touchdown" may have been dumber.
이미 2아웃이라 그냥 1루를 밟기만 했으면 이닝이 종료되는 건데 무슨 생각을 가지고 저런 행동을 했을까?
It's so nice when a vid of errors DOESN'T include the Orioles.
funny ! good luck to your O`s
My team was not featured for negativity either lol
Did anyone else see that old dude dressed like superman in the back? 3:22

SupaBrothaMan. Lol
That's not Superman, it's an old man version of SuperDude!
Will Craig is the literal JR Smith of Baseball 🤦♂
JR Smith used to be good at least
I love the inside-the-park homerun LOL when it can be had it's just amazing. Lol.
could have just been a javi baez highlight reel. thanks chris
That last one was the best one you had. I was like “what’s the mistake here” and then the bombshell. Nice comp!
WHAT WAS CATCHER DOING ON THE FIRST ONE LMAO
Just tag first base and the inning ends
The worst part is that it broke up a no-hitter

@@psymar Yeah, I mean we haven't even started discussing the fries.
First play was literally both players trying to make a play. Not negative IQ.
Dude, the level of disrespect the second dude had to call his teammate safe THEN go back to first base
Aint no way that's how Drew Smyly lost a perfect game :(
Hitting a home run but missing the base
4:43 I'll give Vargas a pass here. It's an American League pitcher hitting.
Javier Baez smart play and stupid play describes his career perfectly
1:02 This must have been so demoralizing for the pirates. Just touch first base! Also, I guess he proved that you CAN steal first.
I live in Pittsburgh, can you guess how embarrassing this is because it’s MY team.😂 Also that first basemen was fired and never played again 😂
Hey, quick question, I was thinking about making these type of baseball videos but wasn't quite sure were to get the clips from, if you don't mind where do you get them from?
Baez is involved in both extremes here
Yup. The baserunning blunder we see here was the same thing he did a year or two earlier with the Cubs. You'd think he would have learned his lesson from his first time forgetting how many outs there were. I guess not. (He got benched after his baserunning blunder with the Cubs, and I think he got benched again after the blunder in this video.)
4:19 LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
That second one hurts the most. What in the fook was he thinking
Rizzo laughing his ass off is the funniest thing ever
Reminds me of my childhood baseball career.
Baez going back home calling the player safe and ending up at 2nd 🤣
The second clip is the winner. Two outs - all the fielder needs to do is take his time and walk back to first and step on the bag. Even if the bases emptied, it's a force play at first and any run scoring before the two out force play wouldn't count.
Or keep Baez backing up. He's also out if he touches home. The run still wouldn't count.
C'mon, man, you can't call losing the ball in the lights "negative IQ."
4:19 wtfffffffff xD
Throws it to the ground 😂
Javy Baez is a pimp 😂😂 Thats such an electric player that the opposing team just totally forgot how to play baseball. 😂😂
I don't see how Baez can get credit for another guy making one of the stupidest plays of all time
At first I thought Vargas trying to jog to first base on ball three like it was a walk was him trying to be clever. Apparently not. 🤣
You really put the drew smiley and yan Gomes play in there 💀
Javier went from decent to worst player in the league real quick
Correction, MVP quality to worst player in the league
0:30 Will Craig (the stupid first baseman) get DFA'd a week later and hasn't been back in the big leagues since lmao
I looked it up. Apparently, in the 2021 baseball season he got picked up by the Kiwoom Heroes, a South Korean baseball team. After a decent season Craig wasn’t resigned for the 2022 season and became a free agent. Like you said, no one’s heard from him since lol
0:09 when you think you playing football
4:05 my coach always says that if you make an error then you need to calm down, set your feet, and throw the ball well. you don't want to make the situation any worse by messing up the throw too
Imagine allowing Moustakis to score an inside the park home run lmao
That Baez play is a classic.
Thank you for this anthology of boneheaded plays that would make a Little Leaguer blsuh.
This could've been all Javy Baez
The weird thing about the Will Craig play is had he just held onto the ball, he could have tagged both the batter and the runner coming down from third for a really weird unassisted double play!
A pageant of brain farts!!! I love it!!
Back when Baez was useful 😂
In Hicks’ defense, it looks like he initially thought the ball was foul but then realized it was fair.
that rundown back to home plate has to be the dumbest thing ever to happen in baseball
Baez is so sneaky 😂
0:24 "Let's Play Leap Frog"
Forgive me if you don't get this but LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLET'S PLAY-
The entire video could’ve just been the pirates
Hicks went bye bye 😮
A baseball rule I’ll never understand is the Baez situation, where you’re allowed to run back to home to avoid a tag, but god forbid you take a diff path to 1st or home to avoid a tag, you’re immediately called out
2:41 I did a double take thinking this guy was packing heat
Homeboy got a desert eagle in his back pocket
As a Red Sox fan I am embarrassed that we lost the ball in the lights.
Hilarious. Ima show my kid this
The pirates can’t catch a break.
0:31 Let alone the first baseman forgetting about the FORCE OUT All they had to do was cover first base and the run wouldn't have counted Why was no one covering first 3:34 I remember this game Kluber had perfect game going on into the 7th Can't remember the Royals pitcher, I want to say Duffy. had a no hitter through 7 too
No one was covering first because no one practices covering first on routine ground balls to first because no one believes anyone is dumb enough to get in a run down on a ground ball to first with two outs.
From what I hear in these comments, that first basemen play was so bad, he ruined his career over it.
4:00 Pain thy name is Cleveland.
Brain farts happen. When I was playing Senior Little League, we had bases loaded and our runner on 1st base tried to steal 2nd. As I said, bases were loaded. He swore that my dad, who was our coach, gave him the steal sign. My dad was a very smart guy and the best baseball coach I ever had. He did not give the steal sign. Our teammate was a stoner so that explains a lot.
What about the long single where the batter homered but was called out for passing a runner at first base? The runner thought the homer was a fly out and returned to first to tag up, but the batter ran past him. I think it was Max Muncy who had his home run turned into a single and baserunning out. All the runners ahead of him were allowed to score, though.
That reminds me of how The Harvey Haddix Game ended. That's the infamous game where Haddix pitched a perfect game for 12 innings and lost 1-0... but it really should have been 3-0. In the bottom of the 13th, Felix Mantilla reached on an error. Eddie Mathews put down a sacrifice bunt, advancing Mantilla to second. Hank Aaron was intentionally walked. First and second, one out, Joe Adcock up. Adcock crushes a ball over the fence in right-center field for what SHOULD be a three-run homer. But Aaron doesn't get a good view of the ball, and when he sees Mantilla cross the plate, he thinks the game is over and goes straight to the dugout. Adcock continues around the bases, but is ruled out for passing Aaron on the base path. Net result: RBI double, Mantilla's run is the only one that actually scores, 1-0 final.
First one def isn’t negative Iq but it’s a funny way to lose a perfect game
The second video was awesome
The guy got a dubble on two errors
I still haven't forgiven Raburn for that clown show effort
5:38 Exactly why the Cubs traded him
Missing a base at that level is Inexcusable
All 4 fans in the stands saw that Pirates debacle
Vargas walking to 1st after ball 3 isn’t really negative IQ He’s rarely had at bats in general
The guy would have scored on inside the park home run if he hadn't had pimped his hit at the plate. A full run at the beginning would have given him an extra 3 steps.
If gallo ran from the start he would have had an inside the park HR
thought the first one was negative IQ by ump until they showed him missing first
The first one is Bad News Bears!
Surprised Angel isn’t the thumbnail
4:35 I’m not gonna give all the blame to this guy cuz where tf was his cutoff man
I get it now. Some of the negative IQ moments are from the players and some of them are from the editor including clips that didn't belong.
0:35 should’ve just stepped on 1st base there were already 2 outs
Should have added the one when Milton Bradley smugly catches a fly ball and throws it into the stands after only two outs.
I think I'm brain damaged or have a negative IQ from being an Orioles fan since 91.
They're doing great this year though, they'd be winning the division in any other division
Christian Arroyo’s losing the ball in the lights isn’t a low IQ moment. It happens.
You have to give context for the first clip. It was a bid for a perfect game into the 8th. And it really was just two guys giving it all they got on a tough play (probably a single no matter what).
I cringe when I see a pitcher fielding the ball; it's so often a terrible throw if they field it cleanly.
That happened this year, anyone who needs context for a play that recent wouldn't be watching baseball compilations
@@ziggle5000 But what if they're watching it 5000 years from now??? Check and mate.
Christian Arroyo wasn't at fault. I've been in that exact same position and you feel helpless.
The Baez one is the best
But on the last one, it's a foul ball. He's not out. He still bats. It doesn't matter if he missed the base. It was a foul ball.
Nice thumbnail 😆
I’m your 800th subbbbb
what did the catcher do
To be fair to that 3-2 "walkoff" it didn't result in anything bad, just an obvious Not Top 10 moment for SportsCenter. ;P
