Ian Happ, who is a Chicago Cubs outfielder today, August 2, hours after the MLB Trade Deadline, just pulled off some fancy defensive work.
Tracking a deep drive, feeling the space as you approach the wall, and then timing the jump perfectly to rob a ball that would’ve juuuust left Busch Stadium. What a catch for Happ:
You see. You thought it was gone. But then it was reeled back in and not gone. Maybe you expected it to go, but I’m telling you it did not go. Ian Happ did not (let it) go.
