Good things happen when Tampa Bay gets O.J. Howard the ball.
Even if those happen on a baseball diamond.
We take you to the eighth inning of Game Four of the Rays-Astros ALDS Tuesday night. Tampa Bay outfielder Austin Meadows smacked a foul ball into right field -- and right into the bare left hand of the Buccaneers' third-year tight end.
Howard's no stranger to web gems like that. Baseball was his first love at Autauga Academy (Ala.), and Florida even recruited him as a dual-sport athlete.
Look at Howard's first pitch form. If he weren't London-bound with the Buccaneers, he could start the Rays' ALDS-deciding Game Five tomorrow night.
It's been a slow statistical start for Howard so far. Maybe more footballs will find their way into his oversized mitts after this baseball did.
