2nd to last diving catch is WILDLY impressive. The fact he was running away from the ball as it fell and only has a split second of it in his view before he has to react and reach out to catch it….. Incredibly done. Bravo 👏

What an incredible moment. The significance is staggering. If the ball gets by him, the Astros easily win the game, as the Red Sox would have had no hope of stopping the runner scoring from 1st. One really has to appreciate those moments where an entire game teeters on a knifepoint, especially when it's a playoff game.
