Reds rookie Tyler Callihan breaks arm crashing into wall as play turns into sad home run
Briefly

Tyler Callihan, a rookie outfielder for the Reds, suffered a broken left forearm while attempting a catch against the outfield wall during a game against the Braves. Despite his effort, the catch was ruled a non-catch, allowing two runs to score on an inside-the-park home run. Manager Terry Francona expressed sympathy for Callihan, highlighting his dedication and the unfortunate nature of the injury. Callihan's impressive minor league statistics had led to his recent call-up, but his future is now uncertain due to this injury requiring surgery.
The ruling was a catch did not occur, and Braves first baseman Matt Olson came all the way around for what became a two-run inside-the-park home run.
There's no good way to explain it, Francona said. The kid is running full blast trying to do everything he can to save runs.
