right? You live for a half second in mortal fear that it's gonna hit them in the head and kill them, and, couple that fear with the real possibility that in an MLB game, the deflection will allow the runners to advance.
In the words of Jake Peavy, the recipient of one such throw, "Who throws it there other than Buster? I'm waiting for him to do something wrong."
I love how Peavy just glances to Posey, then turns back to finish barking at the 3rd Base Ump for the bad no-swing call.
But honestly, it bounces off his shoulder and into his glove, as if they'd done exactly that a hunnerd times! That's hilarious!
