From sure-fire inside-the-park HR to failed triple... Also: Reggie Miller sighting for added randomness.

I was watching the Brewers/Cardinals game on Thursday.

I wish I could find video of this. They showed some tape of pregame workouts, where the grounds crew had put tape outlines (like a crime scene) of where Braun had fallen. It was hilarious.

Epic

If the world didn't suck we would all fall off.

I really enjoy this... he's falling down all the way from second base.

I enjoy laughing at him

But I’m glad he found the humor in it as well. I’ve done the same thing before (twice! – though I got back to third once) and it SUUUUCKS.

“The further I get away from it, the funnier it becomes,” Braun said. "There’s nothing you can do about it at that point. There’s no reason not to laugh about it because you can’t go back and change it.

“Once I saw Eddie [Sedar, Milwaukee’s third-base coach] sending me, I think I got excited, and I tried to run faster than I needed to and lost my form. I felt it coming. There’s not much you can do at that point.”
