A minor league pitcher turned on the jets to pull off the coolest double play all by himself

Chances are if you’ve ever watched a baseball game you’ve seen some fun rundowns happen, rundowns that look like those games of pickle that you used to play in your front yard.

Well, I’ve never seen a rundown end the way this one ended in a recent minor league game and I’m in absolute awe of the pitcher who made it all happen.

The pitcher’s name is Bowen Plagge and he’s on the Kannapolis Cannon Ballers, who are the the Single-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox. Mr. Plagge took matters into his own hands during a rundown against the Carolina Mudcats and pulled off one of the coolest double plays that you’ll ever see.

I’m not kidding. Check this out:

Did you see that speed? Dude caught the ball near home and then just sprinted to second base, tagging out every guy in a red jersey that stepped in his way.

Unreal.
