If you know nothing about baseball consider yourself in good company.
We don’t really play it here.
So it’s a good thing we aren’t here to talk about baseball. We’re here to talk about something that happened during a baseball game (match? playoff?).
Whatever.
Here’s Mashable,
Houston Astros pitcher Collin McHugh went full Matrix on Tuesday night, bending backwards to avoid a line drive like Keanu Reeves dodging bullets in a feat of human flexibility.
McHugh’s impressive reflexes not only helped him dodge the line drive hit by Oakland’s Kendrys Morales (though the ball did reportedly graze McHugh’s hand), it also helped the Astros turn a double play.
You gotta dodge those line drive hits. Check it out:

After the game, home plate umpire Bob Guccione recounted what he saw:
…”it reminded me exactly of Keanu Reeves and The Matrix. And so I had to go out there and I told him, ‘Man, that was just like The Matrix.'”
You tell him, Bob.
The people need to know.
