Koreans Prove You Can Catch a Baseball in a Chevy Cruze

Up until this moment, we had no idea just how popular baseball is in Korea. We thought the only sport they liked to play is Starcraft, but they have their own national league, which Chevrolet seems to be sponsoring.

Not wanting to miss out on a great marketing opportunity, the Koreans decided to put a racing driver behind the wheel of the Cruze G2 (that's a facelift) and a female baseball catcher through the hatch.

For consistency, the ball is not being thrown by a man, but by a machine timed with the passing of the car. After a few hit and miss attempts, they finally get it right.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
