Yankees' Dellin Betances Knocks Off Part of Catcher Gary Sanchez's Equipment

There's throwing hard, and there's sending the catcher's equipment flying.

With the New York Yankees holding a 3-2 lead in the ninth inning against the Oakland Athletics on Saturday, closer Dellin Betances reared back a fired a 100.2-mph heater to Josh Phegley. When catcher Gary Sanchez caught the inside pitch, part of his finger protector flew off.

That probably tickled.

Betances closed things out and the Yankees won 3-2.
