Cubs shortstop Addison Russell saved three runs with a diving catch after a long run against the Pirates in the seventh inning on Wednesday night.
Russell ran 106 feet for a pop up that had only a 5.6 second hang time. The defensive gem was the play of the game as the Cubs hung on to win the game 6-5. "It was more like running and like a one-legged jump slide," Russell said to reporters about the catch. Unreal. Amazing. Ridiculous.
And the bases were loaded … https://t.co/vZhh3CP76k pic.twitter.com/9mUoNmtnY1
