</html>";s:4:"text";s:8568:"Probably the worst out of the top 10. We just finished up a decade, and we wrote many, many stories commemorating the end of that decade, including an All-Decade Team. More than any other double play, this one requires two really strong throws -- no short throws and frequently no time to spare. We've obviously ranked the 4-6-3 higher than 6-4-3, and here's why: The little shovel throw the second baseman makes is an underrated delicacy. He has missed more overheads this year then Roger has slams. The expectation on any sacrifice fly attempt is that the runner will be safe. I'm interested to see who you guys think would make the best doubles team out of the top 10 players from the past 2 years (pretty much been the same players). Fielder didn't play the longest and he wasn't the greatest Tiger this decade -- that might have been Travis Fryman or Tony Phillips, actually -- but he's the most memorable Tiger of the decade, no question. There is the first half of the decade (with Walker, Marquis Grissom, Dennis Martinez, Moises Alou) and the second half (Pedro Martinez, Vladimir Guerrero). Cookies help us deliver our Services. There's a high error rate on this play. So, this month, we will take a. If you designed baseball and said, "Oh, but the problem is that pitchers all get hurt," everybody would guess that they were getting hurt not by throwing but because of 3-6-1's. This has the benefit of producing some gorgeous hucks, as the third baseman gets a running start into his throw, and the throw then perfectly bisects the infield diamond. The best of these are on called third strikes: Along with the mirrored disgust of the batter and baserunner, we get the mirrored punchouts of two umpires. The 4-6-3 is the closest thing baseball has to a crossing pattern, or a screen, or a set play at all. spark. I remember back when Rafa was just getting good McEnroe commented on how solid his net game was, and he holds that till date. It's 1-2-3! Just watch: In two seconds, we get to see both the A storyline and the B storyline reach their final act resolutions, and each storyline is revealed to be (for the offense) tragedy: A batter disgusted at his failure to protect with two strikes, a runner disgusted at his failure to avoid a tag. Any x-5-x version is especially amped, with the third baseman almost firing off his bag to catch and make the throw to first. But now that we all have some more time on our hands, baseball-wise, it might be time for some other decade-looks-back. Then I found the original rankings and saw my rankings had changed, and I was embarrassed at the stupid earlier version of myself that got the double plays all wrong. Gwynn is still the franchise icon 30 years later and surely will be 30 years from now. Not to mention the fact Roger hates him and would never play doubles with him. This thread is archived. Walker is the standout of the eras. Are you serious? So, this month, we will take a look at the best player for every franchise over the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. Otherwise, it's a routine ground ball and a routine throw, with no drama on either out and limited interaction between teammates. We will use cumulative WAR (Baseball Reference's version) as a guiding force, but just as a guide: We want to capture a team's decade spiritually as much as statistically. Choose the best-suited one from the complete list discussed below! You want drama, a little narrative of buildups before the result is all the way known. It might be the only routine act in baseball in which a player throws the ball at somebody who isn't yet looking at him. Lankford was consistently excellent for the Cardinals all decade, but no one really noticed until Mark McGwire showed up at the end of it. Pitchers are rarely asked to do anything too athletic, but this is a play that is so athletically daunting it could almost be its own niche sport: Tune into the world championships of Covering First, where athletes sprint at full speed for 57 feet, then come to a complete stop in the last three feet, stabbing their feet at a hard rubber base while spinning 135 degrees to catch a throw fired 85 or 90 mph through a congested baseline, all while a faster runner running on a non-parallel line tries to step on roughly the same spot on the hard rubber base. The journey of the baseball from home plate, on pretty much every baseball play, can be drawn as either a straight line or as an upside-down V. But the movement of a 4-6-3 double play draws a 4: Because the ball hit to the first baseman always looks like it's going to be a double down the line, making this one of the fastest perception-turnabout plays: Also because -- well, go to the next one: Because double plays where the force has been removed are always extra fun. They could just say "pick a number between one and whatever billion and we'll tell you whether that's the number," but instead they've got the six numbers or the three scratch-off fields or the second-chance games, because it's no fun to know immediately whether you win or lose. This week: The '90s. I've always thought Federer and Roddick would be a great doubles team. Looks like a kink in a hose to me. The lineout double play is a one-punch fight: Within, oh, a half-second of the bat crack, the play is basically over. Mark Grace famously had more hits than anyone else this decade, but there are no 1990s Cubs without Sosa -- not really. There's a great power in naming things, not just what we name it but the very fact that we name it. "Chris Sabo's goggles" is another perfectly acceptable answer here. The other double play with its own name, though the name probably refers more to the act (throwing the ball around the horn, whether in the context of a double play or not) than to the double play specifically. Both are good at the net, serve tactically well and the left & right combination works well. His net game is terrible. When we were kids, we'd practice that play all the time, and the shortstop coming across the bag would catch the ball against the outside of his glove, pinning it to the broad backside of the glove to make a faster transition. The most 1990s baseball player of them all, in all the good ways. And the lack of the challenging tag at second base takes away the suspense. And Kei has been undefeated in Davis cup doubles rubbers, and has had some decent results playing with Dolgopolov. The Marlins won a World Series this decade, assuring the teal will live on forever. Also, these tend to be profoundly unjust. Both are good at the net, serve tactically well and the left & right combination works well. Padres: Tony Gwynn, RFKey fact: Gwynn hit .344 in the 1990s, the highest of any player in that span (min. But now that we all have some more time on our hands, baseball-wise, it might be time for some other decade-looks-back. Reds: Barry Larkin, SSKey fact: Won NL MVP Award in 1995, but his 1996 season got MVP consideration, too, with a career-high 7.2 WAR and 33 homers. I love this little moment of blind faith. Each has a great serve and each knows how to win points at the net. But the 1-2-3 is the best double play, for the following reasons: It has the most kinetic energy. Barry Bonds is actually the Pirates' bWAR leader for the decade, but in only three seasons, and who wants to talk about how this decade started for the Pirates anyway? When that ball is hit right toward the bag, you start to dream big. Thanks to Daren Willman and Meg Rowley for assistance. The Crime Dog is the clear answer here: He hit 48 homers for the Rays this decade! Is there a right way to rank baseball's 17 different double plays? It doesn't usually require the same tightrope throw to second that the 3-6 (tag) double play does, because the first baseman probably isn't throwing directly through the running lane. I ranked them. One of only three players on this list to be his franchise's best player of both the 1980s and the '90s. That moment of recognition you had when you first learned the rule ("see, because now that a base behind the runner has been vacated he isn't 'forced' to go forward anymore") has never totally lost its aha! Walker was the Expos' best player for the first half of the decade, and the Rockies' for the second half. Rockies: Larry Walker, RFKey fact: Led Majors with 409 total bases in 1997, the second-most by any player in a single season in the 1990s. Roger's hands are obviously amazing. It was a bit of a disjointed decade for the Mets, who were pretty bad in the first half of it, but had a renaissance in the latter half.
