Last night, Jacob Young made one of the best catches I have ever seen a National make. In the bottom of the 9th, Young scaled the wall like Spiderman to rob a home run from the red hot Riley Greene.
It was just a totally absurd catch. The play got me thinking more about Young in the grand scheme of things. He got off to a slow start on all sides of the ball. His bat was slumping, his base running was wildly off kilter and even his elite glove just good rather than special.
It made for a frustrating watch.
