Not so fast.

Mullins was able to track down Sanchez’s long ball, step up onto the padded fence and leap up and catch the ball before it could land. It was one of the more remarkable catches of the year.

Orioles manager Brandon Hyde, pitcher John Means and right fielder Austin Hays all were shocked that the 5-foot-8 Mullins could get the ball.

"That was the most incredible catch," Means said, via MLB.com. "I was in awe."

Hyde said the "dugout erupted" when Mullins showed everyone he caught the ball.

"It was definitely better than the one I made in a similar spot. He can definitely get up higher than I can," Hays added.

Unfortunately, the Orioles would lose the game.

Brett Gardner’s two-run single sent home Gleyber Torres and Tyler Wade and gave the Yankees the 4-3 win.
