Hi 8BitBill.

[@criscoleman]

Andrew Benintendi made several Gordonesque catches in left field that were as good or better (and equal to Gordon) than many of the catches that were in the top 100, but they ignored him and all the other great plays made in the infield and outfield by the Royals. Michael A. Tayor's two outfield assists in game 1 of the season should have been in there somewhere. I'm not sure, but I'm thinking he may have even hit a HR in that game.

That was the most unreal moment of the season. He just went out there and started pumping 98 right down the middle and no one could hit it. The balls to do that with men on base in a close elimination game is absurd. I think we all knew The Braves were winning the world series after that moment.
