Leyland Henry Jr. has set himself up to have a bright future ahead in the world of baseball and he is already going insanely viral just over his sher size at just a young age.
The 12-year-old first baseman has taken the internet by storm with his mammoth home run-hitting skills and the fact that he is so young but built like a person who already has a few kids and paying a mortgage.
Henry is all over the highlights with Team USA as the 5-foot-10, 210-pound monster smashed a massive grand slam over the center field wall in the 12U baseball world cup. Henry trotted around the bases, towering over his teammates and opponents.
Here’s how social media is responding to this phenom:

The Houston, Texas native is already an imposing figure at the plate. Henry had previously crushed seven home runs from just nine games while qualifying for the World Cup.
Team USA wound up winning 10-4 to clinch the world championship.
He ended the main competition with an impressive batting average of .519 and 1.563 OPS. Henry is eligible for the class of 2029. It should also be mentioned he has a fastball that already clocks in the mid-70s, but clearly hitting is where his future will be.
Who knows? he just might turn out to be the next Shohei Ohtani and that is really scary to think about to given what the Los Angeles Angels superstar is currently doing at the moment.
