I love how baseball players are thought of less athletic than some of the players in other major sports; but fuck, look at how high he jumped!

[–]San Francisco Giant Alternatepostslikeagirl 45 points46 points ago

I'm not impressed as clearly he is just levitating, which relies on magic and not athleticism.

[–]stylezDWhite 34 points35 points ago

thats my favorite part of going to a reds game. Head to the ballpark, get a hot dog and a drink, and watch jay bruce levitate in right field. Great fun for the kids

I feel like this could be a slippery slope into a Batman/Superman argument.

[–]Los Angeles Angelsixrs 1 point2 points ago

I think a superhero's abilities don't matter as much as whether they're well balanced with their enemies.

[–]kintaeb 6 points7 points ago

He also has an absolute canon for an arm. I swear I've seen him make a throw from the middle of right field to home and get the runner out.

[–]paetactics 2 points3 points ago

And he never misses a picture

[–]Philadelphia Philliesirndk10 1 point2 points ago

He planted off the wall. SO not as impressive as it looks.

[–]ice_veins 8 points9 points ago

I was at this game and he almost made the catch. It was probably one row out of his reach and I must say it would've been the nastiest catch I've ever seen.

[–]Cincinnati Redsdampe 0 points1 point ago

Without a doubt, just a couple of more inches.
