Arizona State's Johnny Sewald Gets Beaned, Catches Ball And What He Does Next Might Surprise You [VIDEO]

Baseball is one of the more strategic sports, it's not just about brute force, it's about having a plan and sticking to it.

Teammates have each other's backs. It's really the only sport that you can intentionally throw at someone at 90 MPH and get away with it for the most part.

Most of the time when a player gets beaned, it is by accident.

Saturday night, Washington and Arizona State faced off.

During the sixth inning, Washington pitcher Layne Bruner hits Arizona State's Johnny Sewald with the pitch.

What happened next shocked me, to say the least. Sewald caught the ball, didn't get upset and just flipped the ball back to Bruner.

This is great sportsmanship! I just couldn't ever imagine a major league player doing the same.
