See that photo above? [Record scratch] That’s Hunter Renfroe. The baseball is in his glove. Dude caught that.
Here’s how he got there: In the Los Angeles Angels’ loss to the Oakland A’s — that’s right, Shohei Ohtani pitched a gem, and the Angels still lost, it’s another Tungsten Arm O’Doyle game! — the outfielder saw Jace Peterson hit a line drive toward right field.
He started running backwards, but you can see that the route he took wasn’t the most ideal. So as he continued to jog he turned — not the right way, but WITH HIS BACK TO THE PLAY — put out his glove AND CAUGHT IT.

The first thing I see on my Twitter feed this morning is this insane no look catch by Angels right fielder Hunter Renfroe 😮
One day into the season, and this very well might be the catch of the year! #OpeningDay #GoHalos
