No baseball player can hit with the bat speed like this to a near 100mph ball which bounce of the surface this far.

The Astros are losing Triple-A pitching coach Sean Buchanan to the Pittsburgh Pirates, sources tell @TheAthletic. Buchanan’s exact role is still being determined, but he will reunite with longtime Astros pitching coach Bill Murphy in Pittsburgh.

Jeff Bean (@sadwinnipegfan) profile pictureJeff Bean@sadwinnipegfanOct 26
No "baseball" player is capable of doing this. They need a "glove" to catch a ball which is softer than a cricket ball and is hit way slower.💀
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Baseball players have made numerous barehanded and one-handed catches in MLB games. Baseballs exit the bat at much higher speeds than struck cricket balls; cricket balls are harder and heavier. mlb.com/news/greatest-… theroar.com.au/2021/11/19/cri… diffen.com/difference/Bas… sportscentaur.com/cricket-ball-v…

This isn't even a debate; it's just a bunch of cricket fans living in delusion... Objectively, Baseball is 10x harder.

Me realizing this is Mark Reynolds coming off a 2008 season in which he struck out 204 times (league leading) and still managed to have no problem making contact in cricket We quite literally used our best swing and miss candidate
