Robbing Homeruns

[ClutchCity]

So has anyone robbed homeruns? I was up 6-3 agaisnt the Brewers and I robbed Ryan Braun in dead center. I did it with Kosuke Fukudome and I took away a 3 run HR It took alot of stress off of me.

I also robbed one more, but I forgot who it was. I ran into the wall a few times though. Maybe more than i robbed homeruns. If there was a percentage for being knocked out by the walls, it would my percentage would be a good 85 %. l

Adam Jones robbed a 3 run shot on Josh Hamilton, I was pissed.

I've robbed a handful, mostly with athletic players like Ellsbury or Torii Hunter. I love how difficult it is, timing it properly still doesn't guarantee a robbed homerun...Adds a bit of realism to fielding

It is A GREAT FEELING.When i robbed my first home run, with I don't know who. I just know it was a solo hume run that I robbed. It felt unbelievable knowing that I can rob a home run if i time it correctly. At first I use to just run to the indicator and think once the indicator is gone i couldn't do nothing about it, since I ran to it. Then I thought to myself and remembered how real baseball players rob home runs. THEY TIME THE BALL OF COURSE DUH!

I robbed Troy Glaus of a homer to dead center with the Florida Marlins' Cameron Maybin. It was an NLDS game. I was pumped, particularly cause I never make those catches. My timing is always off.
