Trea Turner had to field a hard ground ball right in the middle of his in-game interview

In a sense, it’s quite surprising that the MLBPA agreed to mic’d-up, in-game interviews for the regular season. Players — particularly middle infielders — constantly have to focus on defensive alignments and be prepared to field a ball, which can be tough to do while having a conversation.

But it DOES make for excellent television, so we’re glad that MLB players have learned to multi-task this season. The broadcast feature has provided some great moments like what we saw with Trea Turner on Sunday against the Marlins.
