nice stop acton. there is a lot of dead space around the two players that could be cropped out. Most sports shots are cropped as tight as possible to make the person feel closer to the action. however, it's still a fine shot.
This one suffered from not being able to see faces. I think a more rectangular shot may have been better. Right now it's a square picture with two guys right in the middle. Stretching it just a touch to the right or left would have taken advantage of the triangle shape you have between the fielder, the runner, and the bag.
umm...i would have to say OUT ! infielder has plenty of time to take a quick swipe at him...is that Ortiz? too small to be him though...nice timing on this one 8
