Victor Robles carted off field after making insane diving catch for Mariners
NY Post
Victor Robles put his body on the line to make an impressive catch on Sunday, but had to be carted off the field because of it.
The Mariners’ right fielder sprinted across the field to make a leaping catch in the corner and careened into the netting along the wall at Oracle Park during Seattle’s game against the Giants.
The broadcast showed Robles hitting the netting with a loud thud.
He then immediately dropped down to his knees in pain.
MLB.com reported that Robles traveled 113 feet across the field in order to make the painstaking play and slammed into the wall at full speed, getting cut out at the knees by the wall before the top half of his body scorpianed into the netting.
“I just noticed that he was in pain and called the trainers immediately,” Mariners star Julio Rodriguez told reporters. “He made all that effort. But it was at a high cost.”
