On Saturday, Indiana State’s Adam Pottinger made a incredible catch to rob Iowa’s Brayden Frazier of a house run within the crew’s Terre Haute Regional matchup within the College Baseball World Series.

On Sunday, Pottinger appeared to tug off one other gorgeous dwelling run theft of Frazier … till he didn’t.

With the Sycamores main, 11-7, within the backside of the seventh inning, Frazier mashed a ball to deep left discipline that Pottinger appeared to as soon as once more rob for a house run.

And for a split-second, it regarded like he had as he tracked the ball to the wall and leapt, with the digicam angle making it seem to be the ball was destined for his glove.

After coming again down, Pottinger lifted his glove within the air (a signature transfer for anybody who robs a house run) and started jogging towards the infield. But there was only one downside. The ball wasn’t in his glove. And one look on his face mentioned all of it.

After a pair extra steps towards the infield, Pottinger got here clear in the identical sly means a baby may come clear after stealing a chunk of sweet earlier than dinner.

While all this was occurring, Frazier had his again turned to the motion, which allowed us to see some unimaginable reactions from his teammates who realized that the ball hadn’t been caught.

While the house run ended up counting, it nonetheless wasn’t sufficient for Iowa, as Indiana State picked up an 11-8 win to advance to the College Baseball World Series Super Regionals for the primary time in program historical past. 

And whereas that accomplishment implies that the Sycamores will get an opportunity to complete the season on the prime of the school baseball mountaintop, it additionally implies that now we have extra probabilities to see Pottinger get into some dwelling run theft shenanigans, which is all we are able to ask for.
