Meet the smoothest umpire in baseball

More like jumpire, right?

Baseball players have lightning-fast reflexes, but they aren't the only ones on the field capable of athletic feats. Not while umpire Will Little is around, anyway:

Ump-jump

It all happens so fast, it's hard to see that Little, the third base ump, jumped over a ground ball that was aimed right at him. Thanks, slow-motion replay that for some reason is called "YESMO" on the Yankees' YES network, for righting this wrong:

Jumpire-slo-mo

Little not only avoids being struck by the grounder, but he gets full leg extension while wearing dress pants, and shows off ultimate ump swagger by making the correct call before he even lands.

And you people say you want robot umpires.
