I’m shocked that pitchers don’t have to deal with more line drives coming right back at them. It’s even more impressive when a pitcher has the ability to make a play.
Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Sean O’Sullivan’s instincts kicked in during Tuesday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
In the top of the second inning, Pirates pitcher A.J. Burnett hit a ball right back at O’Sullivan. The Phillies right-hander snatched out of the air with his barehand.
