Nolan Arenado makes it all look so easy.

The Colorado Rockies third baseman may be best known for hitting monster home runs, but he also fields a wicked hot corner. This is best evidenced by him ranging into the third base coach's box Tuesday night before throwing across his body to nail the relatively speedy Alcides Escobar at first base.

Not to let it totally overshadow his offensive prowess, Arenado later hit a two-run home run, ending Kansas City Royals starter Danny Duffy's no-hitter in the process.
