Why Is This So Hard For People?
Have you seen these commercials for that lawyer who calls himself the heavy hitter? In his latest ad, he talks about how knowing the rules is so important, yet when he shows the baseball player sliding into home...
He's coming from first base! The fact that home plate isn't square seems to cause this problem a lot. I think I've even blogged about a different commercial in the past which had the same problem.
Even on the David Ortiz bobblehead they had trouble. He's in the "hands pointing up, just touched the plate on a home run trot" pose, and yet:
Maybe he just decided to stop at the mound on his way from third to home.
