I wouldn’t call losing a ball in the lights “negative IQ”.

"I don't know if I've ever seen a first-base coach wave a guy down the first-base line." Great comment by that announcer!

I don’t think a play will ever be as bad or as dumb as Will Craig not touching First Base.

As a Pirates fan that play by Will Craig will always be etched in my memory...still can't believe that happened.

Rizzo laughing his ass off in the dugout is so good

I umpired baseball and softball for 30 years. The absolute dumbest baserunning play I witnessed was in a men's softball league. There was a runner at first base with no one out. The batter hit a line drive. The shortstop made a fine leaping catch for an out. The runner at first base had left the base as soon as the ball was hit. The shortstop tried to double the runner off by throwing to first base but the throw was offline. The ball bounced into the bench area out of play. The runner slid back into first base. I was the base umpire. I called him safe--a very easy call. Then I ruled the ball was dead because it had rolled into the bench area. By rule, I awarded the runner two bases on the overthrow rule. The puzzled runner looked at me and asked, "Do I get to go to third base on that play?" I said yes. So the runner ran directly across the diamond--he could have shaken hands with the pitcher--without even considering touching second base! Everyone one his team gasped. The defensive team properly appealed that the runner had missed second base. His teammates were not pleased with him, to say the least.

1:18. I absolutely love how the first base coach was on high alert and handled the situation. They got an extra base out of it and the next batter singled home Baez for a run. Outstanding.

The Will Craig play, no matter how many times you watch, is unbelievable lmao

Sosa missing the base and returning is both a bad moment and a good moment. Bad because he missed, but good because he didn't try to just keep running and then get called out on appeal.

Will Craig embarrassed himself in front of the ten people in attendance. 😂

that's tough to call Arroyo's play a 0-IQ play, he just lost the ball. The panic makes it look extra bad but still.

I always love seeing the guy practically at home plate calling "safe" and then going "Oh, I guess I had better run to first".

That second one hurts the most. What in the fook was he thinking

Great... Got to relive Aaron Hicks pouting about not catching a fly ball.😅.. meanwhile the batter is running.

the pirates play is the dumbest play in professional sports history

While this is a funny video, unlike other similar videos, you allow the gags to play out rather than cut them off abruptly and go to another. It's quite good.

It's so nice when a vid of errors DOESN'T include the Orioles.

For anyone curious about Will Craig, we was designated for assignment by Pittsburg on June 4th, 2021. A month or so later he was picked up by the Kiwoom Heroes, a South Korean baseball team. But that didn’t last either cuz he wasn’t resigned for the 2022 season and is currently a free agent. No one’s heard from him since lol Edit: In June 2022, Craig went back to school at Wake Forest University to complete his degree and is currently on their coaching staff.

Dude, the level of disrespect the second dude had to call his teammate safe THEN go back to first base
