Watch: Javy Baez Gets Hit Off a Pitch That Bounced by Throwing His Bat at the Ball!

Javy Baez no doubt had the craziest hit of his career on Monday in the 10-0 shutout over Pittsburgh.

Pirates starter Jameson Taillon threw a ball in the dirt that was well outside the strike zone. Baez’s bat slipped out of his hands while trying to stop the swing. His bat somehow landed perfectly and at the perfect time to launch the ball into left field for a hit. And it COUNTED!
