This is an extremely satisfying bat crack.

With a man on second in a one-run game, the Minnesota Twins right fielder Oswaldo Arcia struck out and doled out some swift justice against the bat whose fault it was.

The best part of any bat break, intentional or not, is the shrapnel, and Arica has it in spades.

Arcia and Twins fans may not agree, but watching him break that bat is way more fun that a bloop run-scoring single would have been.
