There are three things in life that are guarenteed: Death, taxes and if you charge a man with the first name Stryker, you will get hurt.
This train crash in a rookie league game features 18-year-old Stryker Trahan at catcher. Trahan was selected by the D-Backs 26th overall last month and is listed at 6’1″, 215. The fella trying to give Stryker an ol’ fashioned Pete Rose is Mariners infielding prospect Joseph DeCarlo, who is 5’10”, 205. It’s safe to say the laws of physics held up in this collision as Stryker’s action resulted in DeCarlo’s equal and opposite reaction. But that’s what happens when you come in wayyyyy too high. Just ask Maurice Jones-Drew, it’s all about leverage.
