“Sometimes there’s people standing on third base and think they hit a triple—but they didn’t.”
That quote from Jim Harbaugh following the 2021 win over Ohio State has made the waves yet again after a third straight win over the Buckeyes. A college baseball team in Kalamazoo offered OSU head coach Ryan Day a position a the team’s third-base coach, and Michigan fans have brought back the quote as a mantra.
And the Michigan baseball team has gotten into the action of trolling the Buckeye headman.
On Monday, the baseball’s X (formerly Twitter) account had the perfect callback to Harbaugh’s two-year old comment.
Great Job Saturday by reliever Sherrone Moore, who stranded a runner on third base as Michigan beat Ohio State again! #GoBlue https://t.co/99XK02lSfX pic.twitter.com/UMaUqE3oGj

As long as Michigan football keeps winning, that meme isn’t going away any time soon.
