Mike Tauchman's Catch Robbing Juan Soto Homer
          “DeSclafani blanks Nats with Tauchman's help”
         (By Maria Guardado, MLB.com, June 11, 2021)



And He Did It Again!

Pitch sits on the outside
right at heart of the plate,
deep left-centerfield
still going back, Tauchman leaps

and he did it again!—
he robbed home run from Juan Soto,
he took it right out of the bullpen
and Soto can't believe it.

just as Albert Pujols couldn't believe it
a couple of weeks ago— this time
Nationals would have tied the game
at the bottom of the 7th inning.

DeSclafani pitches two-hit shutout
as Giants won 1-0, Buster Posey's
homer in 4th only run of the game,
but Tauchman's catch was the gem.
