The footage was taken by Sue Wallin, a parent at the game. Sara Tucholsky of Western Oregon is up to bat against Central Washington. The video picks up as Tucholsky hits her first ever - in her life - home run. Just past 1st base, she tears a ligament in her knee and is unable to run any further. The umpires state that if her teammates or coaches assist her she will be declared out and if a pinch runner is substitued for her, her homer will be declared a single. Hearing this, Central Washington's Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace offer to carry her around the bases. Thus ends Tucholsky's softball season and career.

    We just heard about this last night, when it was mentioned on EPSN2 during coverage of the college softball world series. I showed it to my daughter, who is 12 and playing LL softball, to show her what true sportsmanship looks like. Thanks for posting this video. I think all players should watch this!

    my thoughts exactly monymizer...! I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it myself, Mallory Holtman now ranks just above Michael Jordan in the sports books.

    Seeing that it was her last year of eligibility and that she couldn't play out the rest of the season, yes, it was the end of her career.

  • Seems like this ...

    Seems like this rule should apply, but it depends on whether a home run automatically "awards" home plate to the runner. We would have to have the definition of "awarded" to be absolutely sure. Either way, it was more than a nice gesture because the refs either didn't know this rule or interpreted it differently, which would have cost Tucholsky her home run (most sports leagues refuse to change a call on the field after the fact short of ref corruption.)

    Funny the other team lost by one point. They could have won if they didn't help her but I bet they don't regret it. That kind of stuff makes you feel good about yourself, well it's supposed to.
