I'm not sure exactly what's happening here. His uniform looks like he's been playing already, so not his first at bat?

Funny!

As to why his uniform is already dirty, maybe a double-header? Do they change in between games? Not sure...

Maybe he was a pinch runner.

From browsing baseball sites recently I've been seeing these guys pop up more and more and they do stuff like this all of the time. 

 

 

Further, they play some exhibition games with the most ridiculous rules.  I want to go watch a game one time.

Batters can steal first, eh?  I'd like to go to one of these games.

I love this. This is a great video on banana ball that I found through your link.

Awesome find, golfingdad.

After a dropped ball on strike three. In this game they can steal it anytime.

That’s actually about the tamest of all of them if you consider this is one of the rules that MLB has been pondering and experimented with a year or two ago in, I think, the Atlantic League. 😉

    • Day 4 (24 Jun 26) - Played the mid-week shootout - iffy day on putts as I had 35 and of late been in the upper 20's.   Greens recently verti-cut and they are a bit bump and long haired - no excuses as I need to learn to trust making the proper adjustments.   Overall a decent day with some solid long game shots.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
