When I was an unatheletic and unenthusiastic teenager, I always opted for the outfield. There I could make daisy chains, while the rest of the students did all the hard stuff. But in the world of pro-sports, the outfield isn’t just a place to slacken off; it’s where magic happens.

Because magic is the only logical explanation for this amazing catch.

Masato Akamatsu from the Hiroshima Toyo Carp’s pulls off an absolutely miraculous catch by scaling the fence, holding out his hand, and likely crossing his fingers.

Quick, someone sign this guy up to the Major Leagues. Whatever it is, he’s got it.
