Atlanta Braves outfielder Adonis Garcia channeled the 'swing and hit everything in sight approach' of Vladimir Guerrero on Wednesday against the Cincinnati Reds when he swung at a bouncing ball in the dirt to earn a hit.

Garcia ripped a breaking ball that hit the ground from Reds right-hander Anthony DeSclafani into left field for a single, which was a signature move that Guerrero - who is widely considered one of the best bad ball hitters of all-time - used several times during his big-league career.

While Garcia's hit looked more like luck, Vladdy had a knack for hitting bad pitches a long way.
