Watch: Yelich faceplants into wall after terrific catch
Joe Nicholson / Reuters
Don't question Christian Yelich's effort.
The Miami Marlins outfielder made a terrific catch against the center field wall Wednesday versus the Seattle Mariners, but sacrificed some brain cells in the process.
Yelich's face smashed into the wall during the catch, and while Marlins fans presumably held their breaths, the 25-year-old appeared to be okay after shaking off the cobwebs.
With the catch, Yelich robbed and paid back Jarrod Dyson, who was responsible for stealing a home run from him a season ago.
