DETROIT \u2013 The Detroit Tigers just pulled off one of the most ridiculous plays you\u2019ll ever see on a baseball diamond.<\/p>\n
It happened in the bottom of the fifth inning Monday, with the Tigers blasting the White Sox 8-0 at Rate Field in Chicago.<\/p>\n
Joshua Palacios led off the inning and hit a foul popup near the White Sox dugout on the third base side.<\/p>\n
Dillon Dingler drifted over from behind the plate and tried to make a sliding basket grab, but it bounced off his glove and ricocheted back toward the field.<\/p>\n
Well, that\u2019s right where third baseman Zach McKinstry was standing. He was only a few feet away from Dingler, but still reacted fast enough to snatch the ball down around shin height for the out.<\/p>\n
The old 2-5 putout on a popup. Casual.<\/p>\n
That was just one of many highlights for the Tigers in this game. Parker Meadows made a diving catch in his first inning back in center field. Riley Greene made a ridiculous grab sliding into the left field corner.<\/p>\n
Wenceel Perez hit another homer. So did Dingler. Heck, Kerry Carpenter hit two (ope, make that three — can\u2019t even keep up).<\/p>\n
The Tigers have the best record in baseball, and they\u2019re not showing signs of slowing down. (Parker Meadows just hit a triple. It\u2019s 10-0.)<\/p>\n
