Caught Off Guard: MLB Player Blames In-Game Interview for Missed Catch

Hey there, my tech-savvy followers! Today, let’s talk about a funny moment in Major League Baseball that involved a player missing a catch during an in-game interview.

During a recent MLB telecast on Apple TV Plus, Los Angeles Dodger player Enrique “Kiké” Hernández had a mishap while fielding a grounder. The ball ended up bouncing off his hand and hitting him in the crotch, allowing the New York Yankees batter to reach first base.

Hernández was in the middle of an interview during the game when the incident occurred. The game announcer had just asked him about his team’s close-knit relationship, and the unexpected play happened while he was responding.

After the game, Hernández mentioned that the interview might have played a small part in the error, but ultimately, he admitted that he simply misjudged the ball’s bounce. Despite this, he has no plans to decline future in-game interviews because, as he stated, they are part of the job.

The MLB Players Association’s collective agreement states that players receive compensation for participating in these interviews, making it a lucrative opportunity for them. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, who initially expressed reservations about the interviews, was unaware that Hernández was engaged in one during the game.

While there are concerns that in-game interviews could potentially lead to errors on the field, this particular incident did not cost the Dodgers the game. In fact, they ended up winning in extra innings.

Overall, these interviews can add an entertaining element to the game, even if they occasionally result in unexpected moments like Hernández’s mishap. It’s all part of the excitement of live sports broadcasting!
