My first boyhood hero in baseball was Roberto Clemente, and he was a great all-around player until his tragic death, but he could one -hop a base runner out at home plate from the right field warning track- I've seen him do it. I was a big Pirates fan.

This is my favorite all time throw. Bo Jackson throws out Harold Reynolds from the WARNING TRACK to home on the fly.

not even in the same "ballpark" really - but LONG ago in an age i can barely remember, i was catcher for our work softball team. a guy came ripping around 3rd heading home and the outfielder let it rip also. i still remember the amazing CURVE it took to get to me and i swear to god it landed almost as if guided into my glove. all i had to do was let the other guy finish running into me.

it was the most amazing throw i'd ever seen live.

Great throw. A split -second of hesitation and it would've been late- just
a perfect play.

He was a notorious thief, me a couple other dudes were like that.

One -hopper to the plate from the track in right field.
Not a close play - that's respect from the base runner rounding third ( or the 3rd base coach)

Yes, that and the sheer power of the throw. He took it off the wall, one step and whoosh! Unbelievable.
