Contrary to what many fear him, the tall gardener Cody Bellinger, was not afraid and dared to challenge the arm of the experienced catcher Yadier Molina In an attempted robbery of second base and fortunately for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Clay Bellinger’s son arrived safely at his destination: second base.
It was the bottom of the seventh inning with the National League Wild Card Game tied at 1-1, there was an out on the board and Bellinger hit to right field on a 0-2 count and after Chris Taylor was dominated with a fly, Cody stole Yadi:
Mookie Betts was batting, Bellinger went to second base, Molina did not get airborne and with the bounce of the ball the Dodgers arrived safely. Luckily for the St. Louis Cardinals, Betts hit the fly to the middle and it didn’t result in more.

I am fond of the King of Sports, especially the Boston Red Sox in MLB and in general all of Mexican baseball. This profession has given me the opportunity to cover major events such as the Caribbean Series, LMB All Star, LMP (uninterrupted since 2009), signings of important players. I had the chance to attend the 2013 World Classic in Arizona, USA, albeit as a fan. Apart from this beautiful sport, I love basketball, where I have also narrated games and even an NBA friendly 10 years ago, but I carry baseball in my veins. Bachelor of Communication Sciences from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS) , from which I graduated in 2011. I was born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa and started in the world of sports journalism in 2004 in the newspaper El Sol de Mazatlán, where I was a baseball columnist and reporter at the same time. In January 2009 I came to El Debate as a journalist reporter and it was almost six years (in the first stage), until in November 2014 I emigrated to the radio providing my services in Línea Directa-Grupo RSN. My cycle there ended in July 2019 and after a few days, El Debate gave me another opportunity to work and opened the doors for me again. That is how I came to Al Bat, where I have been since 2019 as a web journalist.
