Get out your oxygen tanks to watch this defensive sequence from Andrelton Simmons.
The Los Angeles Angels shortstop showed why he's considered one of the game's best defenders by running all over the field to make plays Sunday against the Astros.
After cutting off a throw from Kole Calhoun and nearly nabbing Carlos Correa in a rundown after he took a long turn around first, Simmonds opted instead to gun down Jose Altuve, who was making a break for home from third.
After making the throw to get Altuve in a rundown from second base, Simmons booked it over to third to join the same rundown he started before Altuve was called out.
