The Orioles' Cedric Mullins wowed MLB fans with his unbelievable HR-robbing catch

There hasn’t been much for the Orioles to be proud about this season as they’re well on their way to another 100-loss season. But outfielder Cedric Mullins has been an undeniable bright spot for Baltimore.

After showing flashes of his talent during the shortened 2020 season, Mullins has caught on in Baltimore in a big way this year with an All-Star appearance. And now, he may have pulled off the catch of the season.

During Wednesday’s game against the Yankees with two outs in the second, Gary Sanchez drove a deep fly ball to straightaway center field. But keep an eye on Mullins.

He read the ball perfectly, timed his jump (with some help from the wall) and got *way* up there to bring back the would-be home run.

Here's the video

Just wow. That’s how you rob a homer.

You have to love John Means’ reaction too. He knew Mullins saved him there.

MLB fans were quick to rank that catch among the best we’ve seen this season — and for good reason.

This was how Twitter reacted

But, of course, the Orioles did go back to being the Orioles.

That’s going to hurt.
