MLB: Los Angeles Dodgers at St. Louis Cardinals

You might have read my earlier post about Marcell Ozuna. If so, this whole post is sort of familiar.

As you might be aware, on Tuesday evening Marcell Ozuna did this:

When Ozuna climbed the fence I thought we were about to see something unbelievable and technically I was not wrong. https://t.co/Ki9imgZmJx

Okay, so a lot of people saw it. Not great for the Cardinals at the time or Marcell Ozuna at all, but it is great for the #content.

You might have noticed the home run-robbing catch and The Faceplant were both made against Kiké Hernández. Kiké noticed:

Kiké Hernández on Ozuna: “I’m really glad that happened to him. He deserves it. He’s my boy, I played with him, but he’s still reminding me every day of the play he made on me two years ago. The only thing that would have made it better is if it hit off his head on the way down.”

Marcell Ozuna tried very hard.

For added context: Marcell Ozuna "needed" to run 52 feet to catch this ball. He actually covered 80.

That's all I've got. https://t.co/m2Zj9N6sF2
