During the St. Louis Cardinals vs Los Angeles Dodgers NL Wild card match on Wednesday, fans spotted a magician on the field. The magician of the mound was Cardinals’ Adam Wainwright, who stunned everyone with an insane catch.

On Wednesday, St. Louis Cardinals faced Los Angeles Dodgers in the win-or-go-home NL wild-card game. While the Dodgers triumphed over the Cardinals, Wainwright’s ridiculous catch stole the headlines.

Take a bow Adam Wainwright

Cardinals’ star pitcher Adam Wainwright started the NL Wild card game for his team last night. Notably, the 40-year-old ace pitcher is known for pulling off incredible tricks on the mound. Living up to his name yesterday, he astonishingly caught a ball coming at over 100 mph speed.

Los Angeles Dodgers had Justin Turner on the plate, while a runner was on first and two outs. Justin shot a line drive back at Adam, who caught the dangerous ball effortlessly. Adam also had a star reaction to the catch as he took out the ball from his gloves and showed it off to those in attendance.
