Melky Cabrera startled by thunder in batter's box

MAD MELK BEYOND THUNDERDOME

They had some weather over Tropicana Field Wednesday night. Melky Cabrera wasn't quite ready for it:

My two favorite things about this:

1. Cabrera gawking up to the sky as if in fear of the thunder god Catequil:

2. The fact that a man who just stood his ground while someone threw a hard object in his direction at almost 100 miles per hour flinched at a regular natural phenomenon.

I mean, I'd do exactly the same (except for the standing ground in front of a pitch part). That was a huge thunderclap. I'm just saying. What world!
