This GIF is called "a baseball is hit to Mark Reynolds' right," or, alternately, it's called "Mark Reynolds goes to his left."
The Indians' announcers, after much consternation, concluded that Reynolds was going to cover first base because Reynolds saw a piece of the broken bat fly off and thought it was the ball. LOL at "Reynolds saw." Yeah, okay, sure he did. I think we all know the truth.
Another angle. Thanks to Nick for the heads-up.
