Max Kepler took what could have been a blooper reel highlight for the ages and turned it into proof that he’s so athletic.
And what the Minnesota Twins’ broadcast said in the clip below is true — both his parents were ballet dancers. So you can see where he gets it from.
In the fourth inning of an eventual Twins loss to the Seattle Mariners, Kepler hit a ball hard and began running to first. But his dropped bat found its way to his moving legs and BOOM, down he went.
Check out that recovery though! Truly a work of art:
