Andrelton Simmons Made a Play You’ll Need to See to Believe

Atlanta Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons has built himself a reputation as one of the slickest fielders in all of baseball. His freakish athleticism and soft hands allow him to make plays others players wouldn’t dream of making.

Yesterday, he may have made the most impressive web gem of his career.

After Will Venable’s flair took a wicked hop, Simmons was somehow able to snag it with three fingers and throw a rocket to first base. How he was able to corral a baseball spinning like the top at the end of Inception is beyond me.

Although not quite as impressive, the gorgeous snag was reminiscent of this unforgettable Ozzie Smith effort.
