There's nothing Bobby Witt Jr. can't do.
That includes sliding around a superstar catcher to avoid a tag.
Check this out, the moment the Kansas City Royals superstar avoids the tag from Seattle Mariners star catcher Cal Raleigh.

That might be one of the first mistakes Raleigh has made all season.
It's just another day at the office for Witt, who is one of the best athletes in Major League Baseball.
It was honestly a bit surprising to see Witt beaten to the plate by that much. It didn't seem to develop too quickly. The speedy Witt just took a bit longer than usual to get home, and it set up danger.
Instead, Witt pulled out the best slide you'll see in MLB this season, and the most important part: Safe.
It's a blessing when the umpires make the right, emphatic call on the field. And that's what happened with Witt on his dastardly, beautiful slide.
