Jason Heyward climbed the wall to make an awesome “Spider-Man” catch in Wednesday night’s Los Angeles Dodgers-Miami Marlins game.
Heyward, who has won five Gold Gloves during his career, was playing right field for the Dodgers during a tense moment in the game. The Marlins had the bases loaded with two outs and Xavier Edwards at the plate in the bottom of the fourth. Edwards hit a hard ball deep to right field, but Heyward climbed the wall to rob Edwards of extra bases.
Take a look at this great grab:

Heyward is listed at 6-foot-5, and he needed every inch to make that catch.
Not only did Heyward have a great catch, but he also gave the Dodgers their first run of the game with a solo home run in the top of the fourth inning. He crushed the ball.

The Dodgers were leading 1-0 through four innings, and they could thank Heyward for the advantage.
