Blue Jays catcher Russell Martin has a penchant for leaping onto things and trying to make absurd catches.
Last Friday, Martin just about leapt into the first row seats behind home plate trying to reel in a Mark Teixeira foul ball:

Fast-forward to today and Martin is still showing off his parkour skills, jumping onto his team’s dugout railing as he attempted to track down a Stephen Vogt pop fly. While he didn’t make the catch, it sure as hell looked cool:

Yes, Blue Jays fans, he’s alright:
