Ryan Sepede, a sophomore at Bishop Gorman High School in Nevada, is definitely doing everything he can to “make baseball fun again.”
After cracking a walk-off grand slam to defeat Desert Oasis High School 6 to 5 on Saturday Sepede unleashed a bat flip for the ages that would even make Jose Bautista blush.

Here’s an even better angle. As you will see, the bat goes so high it doesn’t even stay in camera frame.

Of course reaction on Twitter was awesome (no unwritten rules of baseball fans here)…

More like this and baseball won’t be the most boring sport of the big four much longer.
