Los Angeles Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel looked to be on pace for his fourth home run of the season on Monday. Unfortunately for him, Athletics center fielder Denzel Clarke had the final say.

Schanuel hit an 86 miles per hour splitter off Athletics pitcher Grant Holman deep into center field in the bottom of the first inning. The baseball went over the wall -- but Clarke elevated and hung in the air to snag the ball for an acrobatic catch.

Holman put his hands above his head while Clarke celebrated his grab.
