Unfortunately, (one of my) favorite baseball players, Endy Chavez, has been injured, and is out for the remainder of the season.
If you recall, he’s also a folk hero for making this catch, which nearly lifted the Mets to the World Series.
Anyway, Seattle Mariners shortstop Rafael Betancourt was going out for a flyball in shallow leftfield, and Endy was calling him off. Betancourt never gave way to Endy, and they violently collided, tearing up Endy’s knee.
Betancourt should know that Endy gets to everything. Me and Bozzz know.
BOZZZ: He (Betancourt) should’ve known Endy gets to everything
ME: No shit.
BOZZZ: Endy makes catches in rightfield from the dugout. Endy makes catches in San Francisco while in playing Boston. Endy robs homeruns from the 1980’s.
ME: Endy makes catches in heaven from earth.

Endy catches balls that haven’t even been hit yet.
