"...and still had to lurch forward in the hope of preventing a bounce. He almost succeeded..."

Actually, he DIDN'T bounce it, as much as I wanted to see him do it. I did a frame by frame and got this screenshot of the downward arc of the ball into the glove.

But I am with you 100%. It is creepy.

If it makes you feel any better, note that the "catcher" is standing in front of the plate, and reaching as far forward as he can while squatting. The ball was caught about 3 feet short of the plate, just barely off the ground, so it was certainly a "bounce pitch", is was just scooped up before it had a chance to hit the ground.

It clearly would have bounced in front of the plate.

His staff should have saved him for a soccer match. I’m sure, having grown up in Indonesia, he’d have been perfectly comfortable kicking in the first ball.
