J-Rod was on third in the 10th inning when Randy Arozarena struck out and his bat went flying out of his hands toward Rodriguez. The outfielder ran to get out of the way of the bat … but the ball was still very much live. A throw to third and Rodriguez was out. Inning over, and the Yankees would go on to win.

The Seattle Mariners have seemingly invented new ways to disappoint their fans in 2024. At 77-75, the M's are destined to miss the playoffs again this season, a sight that is all too familiar to fans.

After avoiding being hit by a loose bat, Julio Rodriguez, the potential tying run for the Mariners, found himself picked off third base during a stunning to 2-1 loss to the Yankees.
