Gary Sanchez literally rips cover off a baseball

Spring training is just getting started, and Gary Sanchez is already ripping the cover off baseballs.

No, really. He is. In February.

During Sunday's batting practice at Yankees camp in Tampa, Sanchez hit a line drive up the middle - nothing crazy. Yet, upon realizing that the cover of the ball had been completely torn off, fans and Yankees players were beyond impressed.

Who needs spring training?

Sanchez is ready for the season right now.
