Cleveland Indians pitcher Zach McAllister has made his name by throwing baseballs, but last night, he made all the highlight reels by kicking one.

In the sixth inning of Tuesday night's game against the Minnesota Twins, Twins catcher Kurt Suzuki hit a fastball right back at McAllister, who somehow managed to kick it up with his calf and then catch it. 

The catch was immediately dubbed "the Hacky Sack catch" by many in social media.

What's amazing about this is that he managed to take a line drive off his calf and somehow kick it up high enough in the air to give him time to react to it. 

The fans absolutely loved this and roared their approval as McAllister simply laughed it off.
