Fanduel Sports Network's John Sadak and Jeff Brantley marveled at Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz's leaping catch to end the fourth inning during Wednesday's series finale against the Giants in San Francisco.

"Did you see that?" Brantley said during the broadcast. "Oh my goodness, that guy is unbelievable."

After the commercial break, Brantley continued to praise De La Cruz's effort on the play.

"I'm still trying to catch my breath over this. That ball was hit like a rocket. I don't know that any other shortstop can make that play. Number one, they can't jump that high. And number two, they can't reach that far. That's like stupid good."

"He's one of the few men in the game to have the Nike Jumpman line," Sadak added. "He's his own logo. It's just hard to decide what pose you want it to be. … There are few in this game as capable of the incredible."

"I think you're right on with that," Brantley added.
