Baseball tip of the day:

If the pivot player drops the ball at second base during an attempted double play, watch to see which way the ball falls. If the ball pops away from the fielder, it is likely because the fielder had the ball in hand and dropped it while attempting to throw. The runner going into second base is out. However, if the ball drops straight down, it is likely the fielder never controlled the ball and the runner should be called safe.
