Shades of Willie Mays

The Braves are losing 8-0 in the bottom of the sixth, but Andrew Jones just channelled Willie Mays. On a ball to deep centerfield, Andruw ran straight back, looking over his right shoulder, and made a basket catch for the out. Here's the Mays catch. Both are pretty plays.

Coco Crisp caught a similar ball over his shoulder earlier in the game.

Yeah, and Crisp didn't have time to stop and turn halfway around; it was a legit over-the-shoulder. Heh.
