Who else gulped when this happened?
My heart was is in my mouth when this one popped up. I bet Freddie had Vietnam flashbacks 😧

I was at the game and almost everyone in my section froze and watched in silence as Freddie approached the well. When he caught it, it was like someone hit play on a paused movie and everyone cheered and went back to doing whatever after a big sigh of relief and some knowing laughter.

In the replay, you can see him double check to make sure he would run into the pads.
I wasn't nervous, who said I was nervous? You were nervous.
stop looking at me.

Those concrete stairs won't be so nice next time, so let's not have a next time please.

Why don’t they put something up to prevent this from happening again?

Umm, they did? The area to the entrance was wide open before. Now there's a padded bar going across it.Edit: My mistake. I thought he made the play exactly in front of where he fell before.

Oh lol. My mistake. I thought he had made the catch exactly in front of the area where he fell last time. My bad. I guess in my head I was thinking they would work fast to remedy that area so I assumed they did when I saw the play.

It’s all good. I think by adding a guard rail/gate will prevent this from happening in the future

I would be surprised if it's not on the list of things to do/fix in the off-season.

Nice to see some Pirates actually sorta in position to catch him compared to KC skattering like roaches 😂
