You know he didn't throw that on the run, going in the wrong direction right? He literally stops, plants and even takes a step toward home plate. If you need a reference just pause it when he catches it and play, pause, play, pause and you'll clearly see he was throwing off his back foot.

Henderson turns double play | 09/01/2023 | MLB.com

Yeah, because he can't throw a 210 foot piss missile without stopping and planting.  He has no chance to get him if he throws this on the run.  An outfielder is already facing the right way when he's catching this, and is able to make a full strength throw without having to spend as much time planting and throwing.  He still takes 1 step in the wrong direction before gathering himself and throwing this one.

You said - That was an unbelievable play with Henderson running away from the throw home.

I'm just saying that is wrong. He wasn't running away from the throw and those are your words I quoted.
