Watch Dee Gordon and Christian Yelich battle it out and then see Justin Bour pull off a handstand

By Michael Clair

While the regular season is serious, with games on the line and division races at stake, Spring Training is for having fun. And the Marlins made sure to have plenty of that on Friday. Fortunately, with phones at the ready for Snapchat Day, we got a chance to witness some of it. 
Like when the 5-foot-11, 170 pound Dee Gordon took on the 6-foot-2, 195 pound Christian Yelich in the most lopsided boxing match of the century. 

And things only got stranger as the man mountain himself, Justin Bour, took on the challenge to do a handstand. If you were to ask me which Major League player was most likely to pull off a handstand in 2016, I'm not sure if Bour would have been in my top 100.
