MYSTERIOUS: Brewers outfielder pulled off most unusual home run robbery vs marlins - What They Never Told You

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Blake Perkins prevents a home run against the Miami Marlins. | MLB broadcast of Brewers-Marlins.

A near-home run from Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez was prevented in unusual fashion by Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Blake Perkins.

In the top of the first inning, Ramirez hit a shot deep toward center field. The ball was set to fall just outside of the back wall for a home run before Perkins managed to reach over the fence and briefly get the ball in his glove. Perkins could not secure the ball for an out, but his efforts did enough to keep the baseball from going over the wall. Instead, the ball bounced on the top of the wall before landing back on the field.
