The second Baseman delivered an RBI triple in the second inn to concentrate the field and marked the first of his three hits that day.

However, it was his post-play reaction that steel the limelight. When Voit slid head across the third base, he quickly climbed his knees and grinded, snorting the chalk line with a straw -containing gesture.

The moment that appeared briefly as if Voit had injured himself on the slide quickly took a dramatic turn when he took the crime with an intensive view of the crowd in the Ray Fisher Stadium.

With temperatures in the low 40s Fahrenheit, his animated reaction only added to the spectacle.

While baseball has a complex story with cocaine-related scandals, online reactions on Voits Possen were largely positive, with many fans found humor at the moment.

The virus clip is now widespread on social media and consolidated Voit's place in one of the most discussed moments of the college baseball season.
