I went to this game... There was a play at first base that I have never seen before. The ball was hit on a hop to Konerko at first. He went to scoop the ball, and glanced off the top of his glove and got stuck (buried rather) in his jersey! He had to stop on the way to the bag and try to dig the ball out. The runner ended up being safe, but from where I was sitting, you couldn't even see the ball!

That play was funny.Everyone had a good laugh over it.Konerko and the 1st base ump just had to laugh over it.

Hawk had to laugh about it in the booth yesterday.

I cant remember too well, but there was a play last regular season when the ball got stuck in the webbing of konerko's glove, and he had to throw the whole glove to the pitcher covering first. That was hilarious.

Didn't Orlando Hernandez? do that with the Yankees a couple years back?

I've seen this happen a few times. When David Segui was a Mariner, he had to make a similar play.

[Chisox73]

I remember those plays very well.Sometimes you have to do what you have to do to get that out.
