Orlando Arcia lunged and yelled at an inside pitch

In the bottom of the seventh inning of Friday’s NLCS Game 6 at Miller Park, Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia was locked in. Trying to add to the Brewers’ lead over the Dodgers, he was facing right-hander Kenta Maeda and looking to do some damage.

So when Maeda threw a fastball up and in, it caught Arcia off guard, and he reacted in kind … with a dramatic shout and backwards lunge that wouldn’t be out of place in a stylized action movie:

Really, though. Just call Orlando “Neo” from now on.

Adrian Garro joined MLB.com in 2016. Throughout his travels, both Bartolo Colon and Vin Scully have placed their hands on his shoulders. Not at the same time, though. That’d be amazing.
