Wake Up With Cap10 America, Adam Jones, Robbing Manny Machado In The 2017 WBC
I'll still say this is one of the best catches I've ever seen. Back in 2017 the World Baseball Classic was brought back to life by some absolute star power in the tournament. Giancarlo Stanton, Christian Yelich, Nelson Cruz, Jose Bautista, Manny Machado, Nolan Arenado Jose Reyes, Robinson Cano, Yadi Molina, the list goes on and on. The games were great, we had some donnybrooks, and then Adam Jones made the catch of the tournament.
His teammate on the Orioles, Manny Machado pisses on a ball and hits it to the deepest part of the park. Jones tracks it, and with no regard for his body, leaps up bangs against the wall and brings it back. An absolute hell of a catch to save a run. Machado can only tip his cap, a very respectful action by one of the classiest guys in baseball. Jones was ready to jump through a roof he was so excited. Hell of a call by Matty V too. Can tell how much these games meant to the players. In years past, no one gave a shit about the games, 2017 brought fans back to the tournament and USA brought the championship home. I can't wait for this tournament in 2021.
