For me it's the direct tv stream/ or 97.1 fm

 

I assume you’re in Detroit area? If you can pause your directv like a dvr, you might be able to pair it up with a smartphone app like Audacy, which I believe you can also pause.

A really good CF probably makes that look more routine but still a laser like that over your head is a tough play for most CFs so even though he didn't make it look the most graceful I would still say it's a good play.

I can tell you from experience that the line drive to center field is the toughest play for me. I have both frozen on the hit to gauge it and saw it fly way over my head, and broken back toward the fence only to have to shame on the brakes and come in and watch it bounce in front of me.

Yep I had similar experiences when I played the OF in High School. I imagine it's even tougher when the ball is coming off the bat at over 110mph like the Vlad Jr. ball vs. probably 85 or 90 like the ones I had to deal with.

Well, but since Guerrero was at bat, the OFs should’ve been only a few steps in front of the warning track to begin with.  Not too much backpedaling required then.
