These People Are Better Than You At Baseball

Sure, he might look like a hidden character from Street Fighter Alpha 3, but he pulls off the crazy flip and still throws the ball straight down the middle. With our recent string of championship athletes who can’t throw a strike, this backflipping glitter dancer really puts things into perspective. And orgy mask or no, I’m still pretty sure I’d rather have him starting for my team than Rodrigo Lopez.

In a related story, a scout was in the crowd for this pitch and immediately instructed the New York Mets to sign 40 clowns. Hi-yo!
