But it wasn’t as easy as it looked to the golf star. And as it turned out, Thomas ended up missing all three pitches made by Scherzer.

Talking about his experience on the pitch, Thomas recalled telling his friends about the embarrassing incident. “I told my buddies whenever he pitched this year and had a great outing, ‘Dude, I totally understand where they’re coming from. He’s a hard guy to hit,’” Thomas even has a short video of his attempt to hit the balls in his phone. However, he hasn’t posted it on any of his social media platforms.

Thomas mentioned, trying to hit the first two balls by swinging the bat as fast as he could. But the third one turned out to be a breaking ball that got him to lunge!
