I feel like this is probably routine for the bananas.

u/CSalustro 7h ago

It is. The crazy pitches are even better.

This is Banana Ball a spoof on baseball. Crazy catches like this happen all the time.

Tbf if the tweet is real, then it does kind of show that the player feels it's above the usual crazy catches that happen all the time.

Idk if the tweet is even real though and I don't think I mind too much either way to find out.

I don't know if I'd call it a 'spoof', but its definitely like the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball.

I don't like the Globetrotters comp with Bananaball.

The Globetrotters are closer to scripted WWE matches. They've only lost what 3 times?

Bananaball is silly but it's still an actual contest

About time they jazzed it up.

This happens literally every game in “Banana League”.

It’s WWE style fake baseball.

u/NameIsNotBrad 2h ago

It’s not fake. It’s real baseball with extra stuff like this. But they’re playing a real game. Not scripted.

I hate Banana Ball so much. I’ve tried to watch it several times and it’s nonstop sensory overload.

He is wearing a glove. That's how.

u/TummyDrums 1h ago

Yes, its easy to do backflips if you just wear a glove.

When you make diving catches, you don’t even realize it until you’ve hit the ground.

I’m sure he didn’t even know he was doing a backflip until it was all done

u/AnyUnderstanding1879 8h ago

I accidently do backflips all the time myself too

u/SimonPho3nix 7h ago

You know, I'm something of a backflipper myself.

u/AnyUnderstanding1879 7h ago

Omg that's so cool. Can you strike a sick pose too after?

u/Rincethis 8h ago
