Tigers' Alex Avila Makes Incredible Leaping Grab While Falling in Stands

Thanks to Miguel Cabrera’s calf injury, Detroit Tigers catcher Alex Avila is out of place at first base.

Before his first career start at the new position, Avila spoke humbly to reporters:

If Avila meant “unbelievably good” when he said he’d be “adequate,” he was right. With his team up 4-0 in the top of the fourth, the 28-year-old made an absolutely insane catch as he fell into the stands.

Looks like “adequate” has a new definition.
