Martin stretches and rolls on dugout railing for ridiculous grab

MLB.com

Russell Martin has developed a dangerous taste for reaching into the Houston Astros dugout.

After nearly tumbling into the benches at Minute Maid Park last week, the Toronto Blue Jays backstop made it his mission to one-up his previous attempt Sunday at home against Houston.

When rookie Alex Bregman sent a looming foul ball back toward the seats, Martin again made a beeline for the dugout, but this time the catcher managed the tough grab with an incredible sprawling effort before rolling along the railing and making his way back to safe ground.

Rightfully so, he earned a strong applause from his own dugout.
