Default Did anyone else see this throw?

Mike Trout hit a line drive into left that bounced off Yoenis Cespedes' glove. Cesepedes picks it up in foul territory and launches it home.

The article says 300' but it's 340' down the line and it doesn't look like Cespedes is 40' from the wall. It looks closer to 320'-330'. Unbelievable throw.

Wow...the catcher didn't have to move an inch! Those Cuban arms...(I'm also thinking of Puig's accurate rifle).

I heard about this throw. It is even more impressive than I expected. His arm reminds me of Vladimir Guerrero.

Great throw, but doesn't it look like he slid under the tag?

Default Awesome throw

Unbelievable top notch defensive plays always take the cake in my book! Awesome throw! Could watch it over and over and over again.

Then images of Bo Jackson pop into my head - Wow! I will always remember that warning track throw to get Harold Reynolds at the plate - the single best baseball play I have ever seen in my life!

There's a home plate angle out there, that shows him tagged out in time.

It was also reviewed and upheld.

Amazing how he dropped that throw in right over Kendricks head as he was running down the line.

He supposedly made another great throw the next night to nab Pujols, but I have not seen it.
