Atlanta Braves star center fielder Michael Harris II came up with what may well be the catch of the year in the MLB on Saturday night in Philadelphia.

As his team was down 2-0 to the Phillies in the bottom of the seventh, Harris made an absolutely jaw-dropping catch over the wall on an Austin Hays hit that looked to go the distance for a run.

We have absolutely no idea how Harris got himself in the position to secure the out here, even if it wasn't enough to prevent the 3-0 Phillies win.

Nevertheless, this is a special catch for Harris, one that shows how talented he is and may well be the best catch of the season.
