VIDEO: High Schooler Steals Home By Sliding Through Teammate's Legs
By Kyle Koster
This is Graham Tews of Ogden High in Iowa. He is a brave and resourceful young man.
During his team’s state playoff game, he decided to steal home plate with a right-handed teammate at the plate. The most direct route went directly through the batter’s legs, so that’s where Tews went.
Hopefully this is a play Ogden worked on in practice because, if not, the probability of serious injury resulting from an aluminum bat meeting flesh is high.
Tews’ heroics went largely unrewarded as his team lost, 6-1.
