In baseball, they always talk about the "heads-up play"; taking opportunities when they're presented and allowing your baseball instincts to take over. It's thinking and acting on the fly when the other team isn't.

The game took place June 18th 2009 as the Toronto Blue Jays took on the Philadelphia Phillies. Marco Scutaro faced Joe Blanton and drew a leadoff walk in the top of the third inning.
