I've never seen a baserunner flail his arm like that solely to distract a pitcher.
One flew east, one flew west, one flew over the cuckoo’s nest.

Getting thrown out at 3rd with two outs with the play right in front of you like that is outrageously bad baserunning.

good job by Whit to confuse and distract the pitcher. basically Whit's walk to Varsho lol
wouldn't be surprised if they go for the double steal.

3rd in MLB with a 119 wRC+. Most can't pitch to them right now.
