It had to happen, and it did! Baltimore Orioles backup catcher Alex Jackson channeled his inner Happy Gilmore and crushed a home run with a swing straight out of Happy Gilmore. Charging the plate like a man on a mission (or maybe just late for tee time), Jackson launched a moonshot that had fans laughing and leaping out of their seats. It wasn’t textbook, but it was unforgettable—and somewhere, Adam Sandler is smiling.
