Puig fires one of the best outfield throws ever
MLB.com
Colorado Rockies rookie Trevor Story didn't stand a chance against Yasiel Puig's missile from just outside the warning track Friday night.
The Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder's laser was eerily reminiscent of Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Jose Guillen's ridiculous rocket in 1998.
The thin air at Coors Field in Colorado may have contributed to the insane distance on Puig's throw, which looked to have found its mark from well over 300 feet.
"As far as degree of difficulty, that might be one of the best plays I've ever seen," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said postgame.
