Some fun moments in this category. Photographers should good judgement putting themselves in the correct place and continuing to shoot even after the action was "over."
First: Good work keeping the player exiting the field in the frame with the catcher mocking him. Those baseball players are real characters. Proper depth of field provides visual hierarchy.
Second: Judges made the executive decision to keep this photo because it is BOTH Sports Action and Sports Feature. Well Done!
Third: The celebration photo with the most faces of the winners. With a cool trophy like that, judges were happy to see it in the frame. Although cropping from the left removing a bit of the scoreboard would improve the impact.
