Billy Hamilton scored all the way from second base on a flyout because he's the fastest man alive

When the Royals signed Billy Hamilton in the offseason, they knew they were getting arguably the fastest, most you-can't-catch-me-est baserunner currently playing in the league.

And in Tuesday night's game with the Mariners, he proved them right with another example of how ridiculous it must be to think you can throw him out. Adalberto Mondesi lofted a high fly ball to center field, where Mallex Smith corralled it for an out. Hamilton, though, took off from second base and ran all the way home for a run before Smith knew what hit him.

Just how fast was that? Well ...

I understand, Mallex. Really, I do.
