With news of his engagement, let's watch Prince Harry crush some baseballs
The world stopped and collectively awww'd when news broke that Prince Harry and actress Meghan Markle were engaged on Monday. The pair is set to wed in the spring of 2018 -- a ceremony that should surely surpass even the grandest in recent MLB history.

"I just said, 'Keep your eye on the ball,'" Teixeira said. "He knew what he was doing. He played some cricket growing up, and he has seen American baseball. He's a natural."

MLB Tonight even broke down the Prince's swing -- comparing him to, um, among others,
Congrats again, Prince Harry. Can we come to your wedding?
