Lucas: Tar Heel Outfielders Get Right Jump
Posted Jun 12, 2009

For some outfielders, the diving catch or over-the-shoulder grab is a mark of achievement. The Tar Heel starters, however, realize that in many cases a showy catch is usually a sign of a mistake in the crucial half-second after the baseball hits the bat.
