Ryan Freel steals home on a shallow sac-fly to right field by Adam Dunn when the bases are loaded...His stats here...
MLB reds.com had this little blurp about what is seen in the film...
After drawing a walk in the third inning with the Reds up, 3-2, Freel went to second with his fifth stolen base of the young season. He was on third after Pittsburgh lefty Oliver Perez (0-2) issued a one-out walk and loaded the bases.
Next up was Adam Dunn, who hit a shallow popup near the foul line behind first base. Second baseman Jose Castillo camped under the ball only to watch the wind take it. At the last second, right fielder Jeromy Burnitz sprinted in and made the catch and fired a throw home.
Watching the play develop, Freel didn't hesitate and broke for the plate and scored with a head first slide just before the catcher's tag. It proved to be a very shallow sacrifice fly for Dunn.
"I made up my mind at that point I was going to tag," Freel said. "I thought it was going to have to be a perfect throw to get me out. It was pretty close to a perfect throw but I was able to sneak in and get the front part of the plate."
