Stanford’s Carter Graham makes highlight-reel catch, robs Wake Forest hitter

The Stanford defense wasted no time making an impact Saturday during the College World Series. First baseman Carter Graham made an incredible catch to keep Wake Forest off the bases in the first inning.

Graham climbed the ladder and took away a base hit from Demon Deacons hitter Pierce Bennett. It wasn’t an easy play considering Bennett hit it to the opposite field, but Graham showed off his hops to help Joey Dixon to a 1-2-3 top of the first.

The play even amazed the announcers.

Stanford, the No. 8 seed, has quite the task ahead in No. 1 seed Wake Forest in its third consecutive College World Series. The Cardinal bring a 44-18 overall record into the matchup, including a 22-7 mark in Pac-12 play.
