Wut?

This is Korean. Something popular with kids over there is to hop on one foot and try to knock the other guy down. Both teams planned this as a joke, or something along those lines. Either that or it was actually a skit on a show. I forgot.

Textbook Calvin Ball. After the pitcher struck out the batter, the batter immediately reacted by doing a quick ballet spin to activate the dance-off zone on the pitcher's mound, and the first to fall would lose a point for their team. Everyone on both teams quickly reacted to join in on the shindig showdown and try to Beyblade their opponents down. However, the batter was regrettably the first to fall, and as initiator of the dance-off zone, his team lost the game. It was a brave gambit, but looks like he didn't have the gonads to pull it off.

Years ago when I was stationed in Korea, I did some volunteering at a local Orphanage. What's happening in the .gif was a very popular game amongst the children there. Pretty much the object is just to hold one of your legs in front of you, like you see, and then to knock the other people down with your knee. It's just a whole lot of hopping and falling down, but also extremely fun and meant to be silly.

I was the biggest, so I won. Until one of evil, clever kids decided that my jiggly bits were a viable target to be headbutted. I started losing shortly afterwards.

I dunno but if every mound charge was like that, I'd enjoy baseball a lot more.

I would love to know why they did that.

Here is the ACTUAL explanation of that GIF, sorry if anyone else posted it, I might have missed it.

This took place during some sort of celebrity charity baseball event, or all star game for fun... something of that nature that didn't actually matter to the Korean baseball league. The batter, after being hit by a pitch, charged the mound as though he were going to "fight" with the pitcher. But, for the entertainment of the crowd, begins to hop on one foot, mimicing a childrens game that's popular among kids in Korea for things like solving arguments. It would be like playing Rock Paper Scissors in America.

Google something along the lines of "korean baseball hop on one foot", you'll find the official story somewhere. I'm lazy...

I've seen a few people say that they do this because any sort of actual fight will result in a season long suspension for anyone involved, so this happens instead of an actual bench clearing brawl.

This seems to go directly against others saying this is a skit or similar, though. I have no idea which is true
