On Wednesday, Carlos Jorge showcased an incredible baseball catch for the Cincinnati Reds, potentially surpassing a previous feat by teammate Elly De La Cruz. The event unfolded during a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, where Reds starter Rhett Lowder delivered a high slider to Will Smith.

His timing was impeccable, and he managed to keep the ball within the park, preventing the Dodgers from scoring. This remarkable play, captured in a breathtaking video, kept the Dodgers' scoreless, contributing to the Reds' efforts to rally their team and bolster their chances for a successful 2027 campaign.

Meanwhile, the Dodgers continue to find methods to secure victories despite the Reds' daring moves that prevent Los Angeles from scoring runs. It is particularly fitting that Will Smith, who hit a home run for the Dodgers earlier in the week, was the one impacted by the Reds' audacious play.
