The Dayton Dragson, a single-A affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds, turned one of the most incredible double plays you will ever see on Thursday.
With a runner on first, a line drive ricocheted off the pitcher, into the umpire, and over toward second base. The shortstop easily scooped the ball up, stepped on second, and fired to first.
Was that a 1-Blue-6-3 double play?! @SportsCenter #SCtop10 pic.twitter.com/1qFdwTVnIp

You can score that a 1-umpire-6-3 double play. That has to be the first time that has happened in baseball history. It’s always impressive when we see a triple play (like this one), but the double play Dayton turned was even more fantastic. You probably won’t see that again.
