MUST WATCH: Addison Russell Play of the Year
The Chicago Cubs Addison Russell has made some dazzling plays since he’s come up, but Monday night in San Diego he made his play of the year.
With Padres hitter Wil Myers at the plate, Travis Wood delivered the 3-1 pitch. Myers jumps on the ball, crushes it 110 MPH off his bat. Russell, who we mentioned earlier today is nearing history offensively, ranged to his left, diving up the middle to snag the ball off a hop behind him. Jumping to his feet Russell finished the play by throwing out Myers at first.
Whew, I did a drink just describing it!
