That’s Eddie Boner from University of Saint Francis scoring a run Sunday against Marian (IN) with one of the craziest front flips you’re ever going to see in baseball. Notice where the catcher is at. Boner has to slide. He’s not allowed to run over the catcher. The catcher, however, has to provide a lane to the plate. You can see that the Marian catcher seems to be right in the line.
There’s one option: Boner goes airborne.
The bad news here is that Saint Francis eventually lost this one 13-11; Boner was 1 for 5 with a double and two runs scored for the 6-21 Cougars.
