This Guy Takes his Baseball Very Seriously

Remember that baseball video a while back when the manager, not liking a call, started crawling around the plate and even made-believe pulling and throwing a grenade at the umpire? Well this one is not quite as funny as that, but it is pretty damn incredible. In what looks like minor league ball (or maybe it was high school, one of those), a player is a dead duck on home plate if he had slid in, but in stead he — ready for it? ready for it? — LEAPS OVER the player and lands safe! Really, this guy takes his baseball way too seriously! He could have easily snapped his neck or something equally awful. But much props to the kid. Now THAT is serious commitment to one’s baseball!
