I'd pay some bucks to see old, fat guys pull their hammies and whiff on fly balls.
Seriously, if you can do it and not make a fool out of yourself, then go for it. Otherwise, don't pull a Mark Lerner and hurt yourself.
I play in a men's 30+ baseball league, so, if I don't get hurt in my regular games, I should be able to handle it on a real field - however - I'm also smart enough to know that I don't want to be standing around third base when major leaguers are hitting...
In Lerner's case, I'd bet that he got distracted and didn't have the reactions to get out of the way at the last second.....
