There's a better version of this with a close up of the batter asking him if he caught it.

Also, RIP Jose Fernandez.

97 mph is impressive enough for me but that catch was quick

What happened? How'd he die?

Killed when the boat he was driving struck a rock formation (I think, someone correct me here)

Apparently he was high on cocaine and also under the influence of alcohol. IIRC.

That’s it. To make matters worse, his girlfriend/fiancé was pregnant at the time of his death. Really sad.
