Houston Astros pitcher Fernando Abad and catcher Jason Castro ran into each other while fielding a bunt during Saturday's game at Citi Field against the New York Mets. The play that pretty much sums up how bad the Astros season has been.
It happened in the bottom of the fourth inning with two outs and a Mets runner on third base. Abad and Castro were chasing down a bunt laid down the first base side by Mets pitcher R.A. Dickey. Abad grabbed the ball just as Castro was about to pick it up, resulting in Castro knocking over Abad. Abad's throw to first base was too late, resulting in an infield hit and an RBI for Dickey.
Needless to say, the Astros lost to the Mets 3-1.
