There are only a few baseball players out there who can make baserunning look as cool as Trea Turner. But when Turner slides into home, the smoothness is absolutely unmatched.
Over the past few seasons, Turner has wowed MLB fans with his superhuman ability to turn a baseball field into a Slip ‘N Slide. It’s difficult to even tell how he does it. He’s sliding on a dirt surface, but he’s able to glide through the plate in a single, smooth motion.
The slide truly does not get old, and we saw it in action on Wednesday night as Turner put the Dodgers on the board with a third-inning run against the Cincinnati Reds.

And here’s another look that was rudely obstructed by a Carl’s Jr. graphic.

Seriously, how does he do that? You can’t overlook the popup out of the slide either. It was all so effortless, and, of course, MLB fans continued to love it.
