Having perfected bat flips and pitching, Clayton Kershaw's son put on a baserunning clinic
If you're not already on the Charley Kershaw bandwagon, it's time to get fully on-board, because the kid's a threat on the diamond already.

If you're keeping track, Charley's been putting on quite a show over the past few weeks, demonstrating a familial baseball pedigree that can't be beat. I mean, look at this bat-flipping technique:

And -- oh yeah -- he's also a pitching phenom, too.

Pitching: check.
Bat-flipping: check.
Running the bases: check.
Remember this checklist if, a few years down the line, there's another Kershaw out there turning heads.
Adrian Garro joined MLB.com in 2016. Throughout his travels, both Bartolo Colon and Vin Scully have placed their hands on his shoulders. Not at the same time, though. That'd be amazing.
