    Pisses me off when people don't run hard

    Man I love baseball but it really irritates me when the dudes run like girls up the first base line, if they would run hard they would be safe every once in a while.

    Anyone just see that play in the rockies pirates game?

    If that dude runs hard and doesnt look where his ball is going he is safe and rockies have the lead..

    Some players always bust their butts, but most take it easy =|

    It is a calculated decision by the player to conserve energy for later in the game or season for a situation when itll make a difference

    Save energy in baseball? Come on let's be real.. Only player that is allowed to slack on the bases is a pitcher.

    ever notice the fielders usually don't throw their hardest to 1st either? if the runner busts ass, the fielder would put something behind it and the outcome would be the same

    The season is 162 games long. They usually play 5-7 times a week.

    If they run hard and pull a harmstring or some shit, they lose 15-20 games to beat a routine ground ball.

    Not worth it.
