Brain lock tends to be terminal with baseball players. Once they screw up a play they usually need some sunflower seeds or an extra chew and a think to reset. It rarely reverses during the play itself. In Billy Martin's day a play like that would earn you an immediate spot on the bench so you could have a good long think.
"its a home run, a home run....whoops no its not, no its not....but I made it I made it, I made it."
Didn't stay on the bag....DIPSHIT.
