No, Manny Machado, a ricochet off the netting doesn't count as a catch -- but nice try
Rules are rules for a reason. Without them, there would be chaos in every capacity.
This is especially true on the baseball diamond, as without rules the game would be a wildly different experience than what it is.
Who wants that? Perhaps
I can't knock Machado for trying to pull one over on everybody, honestly. The dude knows what a catch is, after all.
Your silence is my favorite sound.#FriarFaithful pic.twitter.com/VtlNZL3hoT
