    I have never seen anyone do that. I also have barely seen Machado play so this might be a regular thing for a phenomenal defensive player.
    He and Arenado do this stuff on the regular. I've never seen two 3b better. They're a joy to watch.

      I forgot about that! Caminiti was a favorite of mine. Really disappointed me at the end of his career.

        Maeda's ERA is 0.36. He's been paying dividends so far.

          Trout's amazing.

          Go-ahead (proved to be game-winning) homer and this ridiculousness. Stupid GIF doesn't even show him barehanding it off one hop against the wall:




          Pretty amazing how well he's done against Felix in his career...368/.400/.706 in 75 PA vs Felix. Crazy ****.

              That's just Manny doing Manny things. I enjoy watching him play defense as much, if not more, than I enjoy watching him hit. And the fact that he'd never played 3B until we called him up makes it even more insane.

                    Cubs already up 3-0 on Cincinnati. Another Rizzo HR.

                      Dickerson now has hit Brian McCann in the head 3 times with his back swing. On purpose or not I expect one in the thigh before the night is over. This can't continue.

                        Give Fowler and Zobrist the getaway day off, still lead 5-0 (maybe more) by the 2nd inning.

                            Carlos Carrasco looks like he pulled a hammy covering first base. Carrasco helped to clubhouse, won't put weight on that left leg.

                            Indians can't afford to be losing pitchers.

                                And Rizzo puts another one over the wall.

                                He has 4 hits this series, and each one landed out of the park.
