Ryan Raburn makes incredible catch in foul territory, flips over the wall

It's Spring Training -- a time when players dress up as superheroes, hitting instructors have (and win) hitting contests against their players and things are more or less a little looser than during the regular season.
Rockies outfielder Ryan Raburn, on the other hand, doesn't know how to be loose. He can't stop playing hard. SPRING TRAINING IS HIS REGULAR SEASON AND POSTSEASON AND WORLD SERIES.

OK, maybe not, but still -- a tremendous effort and catch over the left-field wall during his team's 4-4 tie with the Angels. (We also appreciate the throw at the end).
After the game, Rockies starter Jeff Hoffman summed up, quite simply, what we were all thinking to MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez:
"That guy is a good outfielder."
