Colby Lewis flashed the leather Friday when the Texas Rangers pitcher used some clever glove work to nab speedy Houston Astros outfielder Tony Kemp in the sixth inning.
After Kemp attempted to get on first with a bunt hit, Lewis cleverly swatted at the play with his glove and made a great flip to first baseman Mitch Moreland for the out.
This wasn't the first time Lewis used the move either. The 36-year-old used a similar glove trick in 2011 against the Atlanta Braves.
