Being a MLB fielder is really hard. Much harder than the professionals make it look. There are baseballs flying at you at high speeds, not to mention battling the sun, bad hops and more. Oh, and the spin -- never forget about the spin. Atlanta Braves first baseman Joey Terdoslavich learned a lesson about spin the hard way.
