Watch a baseball man somersault over another baseball man

Getting it done by necessity and absolute grace, Toronto Blue Jays athlete Chris Coghlan rounded second, rounded third and then touched down on home plate after a flight over Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina.

The somersault score apparently scared the heck out of Molina, who appeared to go into a protective position not realizing Coghlan was going over and not through him. And yes, there were jokes made about Coghlan avoiding Molina’s very sticky chest protector that a few games back caught a fastball.

Coghlan’s super neato play will probably nudge Padres center fielder Manuel Margot’s ridiculous catch of Yasmany Tomas’ liner on Tuesday’s SportsCenter top-10.

And, of course, it reminded of one infamous scene from “Major League II.”

So who did it better?

Coghlan, Willie Mays Hayes from “Major League II” or this 9-year-old little-leaguer?
