Video: Catch of the Year Candidate
See a New Jersey outfielder defy safety to turn in a stellar grab.Yes, it's early. But not too early to pencil in
Phillipsburg (N.J.) outfielder
Sean Morro as a candidate for making the catch of the year.
The outfielder came up huge on a ball hit deep the outfield, giving a full lay-out effort to snag an out and register a United States Coast Guard Top Play. The dive and catch are awesome enough. What elevates this play to borderline legendary status is how close to the wall Morro was when he started his dive.
One foot was already on the warning track when he went headlong for the grab, and by the end of it all, he bonked his noggin on the fence.
That's how you do it if you want to make a Top Play.
