Being a former gymnast can come in handy.

At least that was the experience of OSU catcher Colin Simpson. The Cowboys were facing Texas Tech on the diamond when Simpson needed to make an out.

Thanks to his gymnastic training Simpson was able to do the splits to get the force out.

Great play by @Cm1Funk and @colinsimpson30 to get the force out to keep Texas Tech off the board! pic.twitter.com/Zfa7i5zh7d
