Minor League Baseball Player Hits Ball With So Much Force It Gets Stuck In Outfield Wall In Wild Video

Minor League Baseball Player Hits Ball With So Much Force It Gets Stuck In Outfield Wall In Wild Video

In what could only be described as a display of superhuman strength, a Minor League player hit the ball with enough force to firmly lodge itself into the padded left field wall.

During the bottom of the ninth inning against the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, Buffalo Bisons' Gabriel Moreno–a top prospect for the Toronto Blue Jays–ferociously smacked a 2-0 pitch from Francisco Morales.


The ball streaked across the ballpark and made contact with the outfield wall.

But instead of bouncing off, the ball punched into the padded wall, leaving IronPigs' left fielder Chris Sharpe looking visibly confused.

Sharpe was seen pointing at Moreno's handiwork as the announcers were heard saying:

"Moreno hit that ball so hard, it is stuck in the wall."

Another added:

"Yeah that ball is crushed."

You can see a clip of the action here:

Sharpe was seen trying to dislodge the ball but to no avail.

That ball was not going anywhere.

Viewers were gobsmacked at the sheer force of Moreno's batting power.


Amateur Twitter comedians seized an opportunity for jokes and puns.


The umpire initially called a home run, but as Moreno made his way to third base, the call was reversed to a ground-rule double in accordance with baseball rule 5.05(a)(7).

Unfortunately for the Bisons, the IronPigs were already leading 15-3 and Moreno's impressive play was not enough to pull a major comeback for his team.

Even though the Bisons lost 15-4, the memory of Moreno's mark on the padded wall will be forever embedded in the blown minds of viewers.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
