The unseen collision and first in MLB history happened on Saturday when Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Carlos Gomez and his rookie teammate & first baseman Jake Bauers collide pelvis to pelvis.
It was a very painful MLB accident. Read on and watch the Carlos Gomez & Jake Bauers Smash Pelvis to Pelvis…it just looks so painful…
CelebNSports247.com has the latest on the veteran outfielder Carlos Gomez and the Tampa Bay Rays rookie & first baseman Jake Bauers who crashed into each other during their battle against the Seattle Mariners.
This looks to be a gay man’s dream position, but in the MLB, this is NOT what you want to happen on the field. Both Carlos Gomez & Jake Bauers sprung into action like crazy to catch a foul ball, when they both slid at the same time and hit each other right in the groin.
You could just feel the pain, especially when you see how hard Jake Bauers lands on top of Carlos Gomez. Luckily, both players stayed in the game and actually had an at-bat in the very next inning.
