Like to laugh at A.J. Pierzynski’s misery? You’ll love this blooper

There’s a section of baseball fans out there who just flat out don’t like A.J. Pierzynski. The current Atlanta Braves catcher has played for seven teams over 19 years. That’s plenty of time to anger various fan bases.

So if you’re among the people who want to see Pierzynski be miserable on the baseball field, we’ve got just the highlight for you. To be clear here: We don’t hold any ill will toward Pierzynski. He’s entertained us plenty of times. But we know the guy’s rep among some fans and we think you might enjoy what’s happening here.

Besides that, some people just like bloopers. So here you go. It’s a trifecta of failure: First the passed ball, then falling when he tried to pick up the ball, then throwing it directly into the ground. Oof. 

On the plus side, the Braves beat the Boston Red Sox 5-3 on Thursday night. And the Braves had only won four games before this, so heck, that’s pretty good. Another win on Friday and the Braves will have a winning streak. Imagine that.
