The Flash’s fourth episode this season, “News Flash,” finds Barry and Iris battling a new villain named Spin (played by Sacred Lies’ Kiana Madeira—which means, yes, this is a different Spin from the existing comic book villain). However, the bulk of the photos that were just released from the episode, which airs next week, focus heavily on…baseball? Okay, it could very well be softball, but the point is that even superheroes can catch the bug come World Series time, and let’s face it, no one’s going to beat Barry Allen to home plate. But why is XS at the game in costume? And is Barry skilled at both pitching AND batting? Man, the guy really is a superhero.

The Flash airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. (7 p.m. CST) on The CW.
