Welp. That’s one way to kick off the season. This college game between Sacramento State and the University of California-Riverside (shoutout to Marc Rzepczynski!) goes from “ordinary rundown” to “haymaker square to the jaw” in about 10 seconds flat.
A terrible scene on the baseball field, one easily avoided if, you know, the runner didn’t smash the second baseman in the face. More alarming: the way in which the local news affliatte packaged this story.
The huge punch appears EIGHT TIMES (by my count) in the 103 second-long piece. They literally cut to the punch after every interview/talking head shot. Ugly. Enjoy baseball today, remember a donnybrook lurks around every corner.

Didn’t even flinch. Wow.
Yeah, I think that second baseman should look into welterweight boxing as well as baseball! Certainly has the chin for it.
He didn’t flinch because that punch was one notch above a pillow fight.
“This hasn’t happened on our team for 6, 8 years” is probably the best baseball coach quote ever.
I noticed that too, hilarious.
That was my take away, too. Awesome!
What a wimpy punch
Can we take a brief moment to notice that there is a human being (not a Star Wars character) named Gulstan Dart?
Gulstan Dart for President!
