Engel in the outfield: White Sox center fielder makes an incredible catch to rob a home run

Share

Adam Engel has made some fantastic catches this season.

This might be the best one yet.

"It’s definitely up there," Engel evaluated after the game. "That was a play that I had to run pretty good just to go get it and it was at all the wall. It was definitely up there."

The White Sox center fielder made a remarkable snag in Monday's matinee against the Cleveland Indians at Guaranteed Rate Field, leaping to take a home run away from former White Sox outfielder Austin Jackson.

Take a look:

What a catch.

"You just get excited for your pitcher, your team," Engel said. "You turn a run into an out, which is a momentum play I think. We were able to come back after that inning and score some runs. A momentum shift is always good."

The fact that it was Jackson who hit that ball adds a fun element to the play. You might remember the jaw-dropping grab he made earlier this season at Fenway Park.

We'll leave it up to you to determine which catch was better, but we can all agree both snags were top notch.

A standing ovation for the #EngelInTheOutfield.
