I first saw this video on Facebook and had to give a Salute to six-year-old, Ross Bernath, who did something rare even for the MLB: make an unassisted triple play. With an opposing player at the plate, a pop-up floated directly to Bernath, who nabbed it cleanly, raced back to touch third base, and then chased down the advancing runner from second; all without the help of a single teammate.
According to Wikipedia, only fifteen MLB players have done this in history. Even better, Bernath had to do this in a faster amount of time because he was playing on a diamond with base paths much closer to each other than in the bigs. I couldn't believe that a six-year-old was making a feat such as this look like child's play (pun intended). Check out the video of the amazing play below!
