Mets’ Tyrone Taylor snagged the catch of the 2024 MLB postseason

WHAT A CATCH!!!

New York Mets outfielder Tyrone Taylor made the catch of the 2024 MLB postseason so far in Game 3 of the NLCS at Citi Field on Wednesday night.

As Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Tommy Edman got a long hit to the warning track on a Luis Severino pitch in the top of the second inning, Taylor made sure it didn’t hit the ground with this Matrix-like acrobatic catch.

Taylor almost collided with fellow Met Starling Marte on the play, which made his composure to snag the ball all the more impressive.

You’ll want to watch this one over and over again, which you can below with the broadcast of the moment and a close-up angle of Taylor making the jaw-dropping catch.

Mets’ Tyrone Taylor hit the cover off a baseball that bizarrely went from foul to fair

This was super strange.

The New York Mets and Atlanta Braves are playing an intense double-header to determine which teams will make the postseason.

Fans knew the vibes were going to be weird when many realized the smart strategy was for both teams to independently forfeit one of the two games as one way to ensure both teams made the playoffs.

The game got really wonky early in the third inning when Mets outfielder Tyrone Taylor somehow hit the actual cover off the baseball on an infield hit.

Due to the weird bounce caused by the cover coming off, the ball went from likely going foul to barely staying within the lines.

This bizarre trajectory allowed Taylor to beat the throw to first base as he reached safely on an infield single.
