WATCH: Braves use Jedi-like powers to get an out vs. Nationals (probably)

On "Star Wars" night at Nationals Park, it's the Braves showing an apparent mastery of the Force.

During a second-inning at-bat Saturday, Nationals hitter Pedro Severino hit a dribbler off the end of the bat down the foul side of the first base line. But thanks to some intense spin, or perhaps Jedi-like powers on the Braves, the ball inexplicably took a left turn and into fair territory. Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman scooped up the ball and tagged Severino out.
