St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Lance Berkman isn't known for his speed or gracefulness on the basepaths. And he proved it during Game 3 of the World Series when his failed attempt of a head-first slide leaves him with a mouthful of dirt (and chalk).See for yourself as the 13-year MLB veteran "bites the dust" on this following play -- much to the delight of his onlooking teammates.

Derek Holland walks Nick Punto with one out in the top of the sixth. It was the first walk allowed by Holland, and it could not have come at a worse point, as Punto bats ninth.
