Yep. Robot.

He's hitting .473/.573/.851 with 16 homers, and he's pitched 7 & 1/3 innings this season, allowing three hits, no runs, and striking out 10. Recap:

Buster Posey didn't need to do anything more to convince Florida State baseball fans he is the nation's best player. Or North Carolina State coach Elliott Avent for that matter.

But for good measure, Posey delivered a towering triple in the eighth inning and then shut down the Wolfpack from the mound in the ninth to lead the third-ranked Seminoles to a 1-0 victory on Friday night.

In a game earlier this week, he played all nine positions.
