Ever See a Guy Go First to Third on a Walk? Because Ronald Acuña Jr. Just Did It

Baseball Is Fun

There is something beautiful about a baserunner going from first base to third base on a single. Taking the extra base. The elegant strides. It’s art.

I can’t say I’ve ever seen a guy pull off first to third on a WALK, though.

But Ronald Acuña Jr. caught the Dodgers sleeping and accomplished the feat tonight:

Officially, it goes down as a steal of third base. It was fruitful, too, as the next batter grounded out and Acuña was able to score.

Serious heads up stuff, and also a lot of fun to watch.
