YouTube’s Top Home Plate Collisions
Since Major League Baseball isn’t down with their content being on YouTube, this list showcases some of the best (amateur) full-contact plays at the plate the interwebs have to offer.
#6: Little League Intensity
I forgot how confusing little league baseball can be. Seemingly every kid has a different jersey on and some in the field are wearing helmets. Regardless, this kid jacks one to the outfield and isn’t letting a catcher stop him from getting an in-the-parker.
#5: The Flail
This catcher looks like a serious puss as he avoids contact by sticking his glove out, loses the ball, then flops like there was legitimate contact. That said, the runner looked like he was sprinting downhill away from rabid dogs.
#4: OWNED
This guy isn’t happy that a clip of him getting trucked by a girl at the plate is on YouTube.
#3: Face To Knee
Of course it has to go a little different in women’s softball. Rather than a rugby-like collision, this catcher leans in and gets a mouthful of knee, which apparently cost her 2 teeth.
See the top 2 after the jump…
#2: Major Minor League Collision
This catcher was definitely seeing birdies.
#1: The Spearhead
This missile-like runner lowers his head and lands a direct hit on the catcher, who gets decked, but holds on for the out. This one is appropriately set to a Nelly track titled BOOM.
