The ball is bobbled out in the center, and here comes the throw, and what a throw! He’s gonna slide in head first, here he comes… he’s out. No, wait! Safe, safe at second base!

The pitcher glances over, winds-up and it’s bunted, bunted down the third base line, the suicide squeeze is on! Here he comes, squeeze play, it’s gonna be close, here’s the throw, here’s the play at the plate, holy cow I think he’s gonna make it…_ ---
