One of the best catches on the tarp....which was cool enough....after the catch, he balances himself on the arms of the seats, turns throws back into the field.

Thats a tough play for anyone, thats a big man up there dancing like a cat!

I am sure the replays will be all over tonight for the catch , whcih is awesome enough, the continuance is awesome.

here ya go.

His defense this year has been great! And I am not talking about the actual glove work, but going to the right base, leaving the base , leaving the 2B get the ball etc.

That play was awesome athleticism and balance.

I agree. I can see a White Sox player trying that because (all together now) THEY HAVE NOTHING TO PLAY FOR!

Replay with the TV call, then the radio call ... if that does anything for you.

Not sure I've heard it mentioned, or read it anywhere....but didnt Rizzo make a similar play last year,...and there was a player on third base that was awarded home? I recall that happening and thinking at the time it would have been better if he did not catch that ball (allowing a run to score).

Anyone remember details of that ?

Yeah, the rule states a baserunner will be awarded a base if the fielder makes the catch but ends up outside the field of play.

I just don't want Rizzo to get hurt. Let the popups reach the stands I say.
