Mid-game Sunday Night Baseball interviews with players on the field have been a blast since they were started by ESPN, especially when the star has to make a play in the middle of said interview (this has happened with Francisco Lindor turning a double play once and Gleyber Torres called his own double play).
So here’s another good one: Juan Soto was asked in the middle of the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox game which one of his teammates in his career wowed him with the sound of the ball off their bat.
As Soto considered it, he was hit a fly ball … and he answered “Bryce Harper” before it hit his mitt.
