Daniel Shirey-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
Atlanta Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons continues to defy the laws of physics.
His skills were on display once again Wednesday night, as he ranged into shallow left field to corral a ground ball off the bat of Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud before unleashing an impossible throw to nail the hustling catcher and preserve his team's slim 3-2 lead.

Simmons continues to demonstrate defensive prowess truly unparalleled among his contemporaries, and is surely destined for his second consecutive Gold Glove award this season.
Heyward on Andrelton: "He just continues to amaze." #Braves
