Lucas: Tar Heel Outfielders Get Right Jump

Posted Jun 12, 2009
There is perhaps no better measure of the dependability of Carolina's outfielders than the relative dearth of recent spectacular plays made by Mike Cavasinni, Ben Bunting and Garrett Gore. For some outfielders, the diving catch or over-the-shoulder grab is a mark of achievement. The Tar Heel starters, however, realize that in many cases a showy catch is usually a sign of a mistake in the crucial half-second after the baseball hits the bat. (Tar Heel Blue)
