Japan was able to pull back closing the fifth inning, but Randy Arozarena stole a home run and fielded a difficult backrunning ball with the bases loaded

Randy Arozarena is one of the sensations of the World Baseball Classic and this Monday he stole the show again by stealing a safe home run from outfielder Kazuma Okamoto in the bottom of the fifth inning. With the Aztec ninth dominating the action 3-0, starter Patrick Sandoval almost saw his great performance marred after the Japanese hit a long-range drive down the left sector.

Arozarena chased him to the fence and before he went to the other side, he took a tremendous leap, sacked the ball and blew up the fans at Marlins Park in Miami. Once he was left with the ball, the Cuban naturalized Mexican made his mythical celebration and made Sandoval take off his cap to celebrate the save and imitate his celebration.

Social networks were filled with messages and interactions after the outfielder's play. “Things AMLO has done well: adopt Randy”; “My religion: Arozarenaista”; “Simply the player who brought that extra quality and magic to the Mexican team”; “What planet are you from?” were some reactions from Internet users on Twitter.

In the same fifth episode, he had to field a difficult ball running backwards after a hit from Kensuke Kondoh with the bases full.

A few days ago, in the historic comeback against Puerto Rico, Arozarena made another great save that was cataloged by many as the best of the World Baseball Classic. He was in the top of the eighth with the score 5-4 when he stole a shot from Emmanuel Rivera.

The baseball player is making merits to stay with the MVP of the championship due to his good defensive performances, but also offensive ones. In this section he hits 471.
