Kownacki leaps over the catcher

Great GAG GIFT for MOTHER'S DAY http://8194ada3.seriousfiles.com

Courtesy of Fordham Sports Info - Audio is supplied by Gregg Caserta - WFUV From Tuesday night's Fordham-Iona college baseball game. Fordham rallies from 9-1 down to tie game. With score tied at 9 in the bottom of the 8th and bases loaded, Chris Walker (#4) puts Fordham ahead with game-winning hit. The baserunner at first, Brian Kownacki (KAH-nack-ee), scores by leaping over Iona catcher James Beck, and landing on home plate with a handstand, to put Fordham ahead 12-9, which was the final score

holy wow beast mode wish I could do that but I definetly can't crap

[djannias]

can't tell from this angle, tho he got his glove up there I'm not sure that it did touch kownacki. regardless that's quite a selfless move to sacrifice his body as such instead of plowing through the catcher. much respect

The rule does not say anything against high jumping.

The catcher was standing directly on the baseline. What SHOULD the runner have done? Just quit? Or run into him full speed like Pete Rose into Ray Fosse?

Nothing was preventing the catcher from reaching up and tagging him.
