In this story:

One of the coolest plays in all of sports has to be an inside-the-park home run in a MLB game. They don’t happen all that often, but when they do they tend to be pretty special. 

That was the case Sunday in Port Charlotte, Fla., when Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Kameron Misner circled the bases against the Detroit Tigers after hitting a blooper into shallow center field. 

In case you missed it, the Tigers had four players chasing down the fly ball, but instead of any of them making a play on it, shortstop Andrew Navigato tripped while chasing it down and then kicked the ball by mistake into right field, allowing Misner to touch them all.

Amazing.
