No. 8 JOINING THE PATRONS

From May of 2015, Nolan Arenado leaps into the stands to come down with Skip Schumaker‘s foul popup. He plummeted into the first row of seats for a key out in the eighth of this tie game with the Reds.

The Rockies won this game on a Nolan Arenado sacrifice fly in the top half of the next inning because, of course they did.

I love this play from Arenado because it takes so much courage to go into the stands particularly on the road.
