VIDEO: Blue Jays OF Billy McKinney is Somehow Fine After Making Incredible Catch Crashing Into Wall
By Seth Carlson
They say catcher is the hardest position to play in baseball, but it wouldn't be inaccurate to say playing outfield can have dangerous consequences of its own. Blue Jays OF Billy McKinney can attest to that, especially after he made an unbelievable catch in Thursday night's Blue Jays-White Sox tilt. The catch took away extra bases, but McKinney paid for it in a painful way.

OUCH.
McKinney is no stranger to meeting the outfield wall head-on, as he missed time during his short stint with the New York Yankees for a similar collision.

Can't say the guy doesn't leave it all on the field, that's for sure.
