Phillies pitcher Cliff Lee's catch was the highlight of the opening game of the World Series, leading the Phillies to victory with a score of 6-1. Cliff Lee's making-it-look-too-easy catch changed it from a Yankees-Phillies game to a Phillies-Yankees game. Oh, and Chase Utley's two home runs didn't hurt. Seriously, though, even if you're not into baseball, you have to see this too-casual catch.

No, the cherry atop of Lee's sparkling 6-1 win over the New York Yankees in Game 1 of the Fall Classic Wednesday night was that he did all of this while looking vaguely like your next-door neighbor mowing his lawn.
