The reason he was over there in the first place was because of the shift, but still … he went a LONG way to get that one. Unbelievable.
What’s next, 2020?
Statcast on Manny Machado … an infielder … going into the RF corner to make a catch
His starting depth as the "rover" was 205 feet
He still needed to cover 100 feet
