Marcus Stroman's brother Jayden made baffling play in college baseball for Virginia

1 hour ago 4

Marcus Stroman's little brother Jayden has a promising baseball future ahead of him.

But recently, he had a moment on the pitcher's mound that he'd like to forget.

Jayden was in the game for the University of Virginia against in-state foe James Madison, and there was a dribbler hit back toward the mound.

He fielded the baseball fine, but then he slipped.

And then while seated on his backside, Jayden didn't just take the loss. He still tried to throw to first, and he airmailed it by a mile.

A run came home, and Jayden went a little bit viral for something he would've likely preferred no one ever see.

Jayden is just in his freshman college season and has a long way to go, but he displayed immense ability in high school that gives potential to eventually be a solid draft pick to MLB.

Older brother Marcus is currently a free agent after spending last season with the New York Yankees. The long-time Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets pitcher may not have much time left in the major leagues.

But if things go the way the Stroman family is hoping, there'll be another one of their own making his way to the majors soon enough.

For now, Jayden will simply put on the right mindset and try to bounceback from an inexplicable, odd play for Virginia.
