Catching Andre Ethier's Batting Practice Double



Bleacher Bums is MLB FanHouse's look at those oh-so-fun fan adventures.

Yes, it's only batting practice, but it's still pretty freaking cool that this guy had his camera running and the presence of mind to stab that ball as it came whizzing by. (If it was me, I probably would've ended up with a broken camera and a black eye.) You could bring a camera to the ballpark every day for a decade and not catch something this slick on film.

That said, the guy who filmed this is no stranger to viral baseball clips: it's pupkin12, the same YouTube user who caught Carlos Lee both serenading his hecklers and reminding them of the score.
