This play had a little bit of everything. Fresh off hitting a ball completely out of Dodger Stadium earlier this week, Miami Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton absolutely destroyed a pitch from Atlanta Braves starter Alex Wood on Saturday.
This Stanton home run was a 💣, but the fan's one-handed grab was #JustRidiculoushttps://t.co/lYQaRaAtEy

The ball went 478 feet in the air and landed in the waiting hand of a spectator, who made an amazing bare-handed catch.
We aren’t entirely sure what is more impressive here. Stanton is a professional baseball player with a $300 million contract. On the other hand, that fan couldn’t even afford to bring a glove to the game.
Sorry Giancarlo, we’re going with the fan here.
