I was watching this game when it happened and I just couldn't believe it when I saw it. I played baseball myself for 17 years and coached for a few more. I don't know how many thousands of games I've seen or the thousands I have yet to see and this is the first and only time I will ever see this happen. Braun knew exactly what was going on...until Segura started running towards first. I honestly believe Segura thought he was out and started running in until he was told to stay on a base by the coaches. It was his base running gaffe in the first place but then the umps never called him out when he got tagged on his way to first. Then the irony of it all sets in...when he is thrown out trying to steal second base...again... I'm glad they're winning now, but I am ashamed this happened to my team
