Albert Almora robbed a home run during Wednesday’s Chicago Cubs-Atlanta Braves game, and he made it look incredibly easy.

Braves catcher Tyler Flowers led off the bottom of the second with a ball to deep center. Almora went running back at full speed and climbed the wall to make the catch without breaking stride.

The ball looked like it was heading out of the park in Atlanta. According to Bleacher Nation, that type of drive off the bat has a 95 percent hit probability. But on this day, with Almora in center, it became part of the five percent.

Flowers' shot was barreled and had a 95% hit probability.

Albert Almora is the 5%.
