Great Defense Videos? Let's See Some!

I still think this is one, and he'll be doing it for years to come.

Anyone else have any video of great defensive plays they want to toss up here?

I always appreciated great defense over offense.

One announcer commented on how he was surprised that Escobar's arm didn't pop out of socket. Let's see more!

There was a video of BJ Upton when he was at SS, playing the Yankees (I think it was one of those blackout games they had empty stadium for).

He made the same play in the hole, running full speed towards left field, and threw to first in full stride the opposite way. Gunned the runner with ease.

I wish I could find that video.

Best part the game IMO.

This is one of my favorites from this past season. Not flashy, but the ball's spin causes a strange bounce and Omar calmly barehands it and flips to first. For me, those little parts of the game are gold!

EDIT: Another all-time great was Manny diving to cut off Damon's throw in the outfield. Priceless.

If this ball drops the Mets lose the game.Beltran ran up Tal's hill and caught the ball over his shoulder.One of the greatest plays ive ever seen.
