BUSTER POSEY INJURY FULL
Here's another screen grab from the moment of impact.Įxpect the Bay Area to go full tilt Zapruder on this play. I don't see that when I watch the reply.Īnd she's right. Maybe I need to watch the reply again for the 20th time, because the media keeps saying it was a clean play. You could see Posey laying in the dirt and struggling to move. The correct play for a runner in that situation is to slide to the backside of the plate, but Cousins veered left and speared him. Buster was in front of the plate when he caught the play. Couldn't really see much because we were sitting in the bleachers. Sally Kuchar, Curbed editor and diehard Giants fan, who was at last night's game, explained to SFist what she witnessed from the bleachers. They don't mention anything about being out for the season. Ford DL w/ankle sprain," the franchise notes. "Posey placed on DL w/fracture to bone in lower left leg. The Giants point out that Posey has been placed on the disabled list, of course. Pablo Sandoval sent out this message on Thursday morning,"Good morning I feel so bad because we lost buster for rest of the season it's gonna be hard with out him." He backtracked with the following revision, "Talking further within our team, I might have misspoken and hopefully Buster isn't out for the season." Fingers crossed, dear Panda. Here are some other reactions to the 24-year-old's shocking (though not insurmountable!) injury: (We hope, pray, collectively vibe this not to be the case.) Above is John Colton's Oliver Stone-like look of Cousins' alleged intentions, showing a clear path to plate but a direct hit aimed at Posey. Far worse? The possibility of pulling the 24-year-old Giants star out for the season. As most of you know by now, Buster Posey's collision with Scott Cousins Wednesday night resulted in a broken leg and torn ligaments. Not the best way to start off the Memorial Day Weekend, that's for sure.
