Context of it being a 1-0 win certainly makes it all the cooler as well

Love the faces of the fans in this one, there is a full gamut of emotions behind him

Should be a HR, ball isn’t even in the glove yet and he’s already halfway over the fence

You guys just haven’t seen me caught those wiffle balls in my backyard.

The first two are gonna have non-baseball fans, saying « He caught those two in the playing field. Why is that a big deal? »

So why is the one where he also goes over the fence not a HR? Seems like if the ball is in HR territory and he is also in HR territory and touching the ground that it would be a HR?

Not to be a hater, but this is probably not true, right? The first two HR robberies are probably a decent catch probably for most major league outfielders, though the third is obviously spectacular. HR robberies aren’t automatically the best defensive plays by outfielders. Ranging a huge distance and diving for a catch is definitely a more impressive individual play than the first two HR robberies; surely a few of those have happened for a player in a game before.
I’m sure statcast has a OAA single game OF record and it’s probably going to better than this one. There’s a reason why Jo Adell, who has historically been a Not Good outfielder, could pull this off.
Still, this was an amazing game, maybe never happened before!
