Hey, this is pretty neat!
The St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs played in London this past weekend, which led to some fun stuff including British calls of the game as if it was soccer.
But let’s focus on this video. This is a shot of the Cardinals taking the field this weekend, shot by a drone, a lovely view that we don’t usually get to see from a baseball game.
Yet everyone had the same thought: “Is that something from a video game like MLB: The Show? Because, damn, it really looks like it!”
Check out the video and the reaction:
Why does this clip of Nolan Arenado running out to third look like something straight out of MLB The Show 😂😂😂
