Oh sure, you try hitting a foul ball straight up in the air and then juggle it like it was a soccer ball in the next second. See how easy it is!
Seriously, though, that’s what the Seattle Mariners’ Eugenio Suarez did on Wednesday night, and it’s super cool.
He hit a ball that went over his head, which he immediately tracked by watching it. Then, he bumped it with his knee like it was a hacky sack, booted it with the cleat on his other foot, and then sent it flying like a penalty kick to the dugout.
The crowd and the booth loved it:
Whoa!
