Because I was at the game I didn't see the TV coverage of it until now. Thank you!

I noticed the announcers didn't mention it was the LSU right fielder making the put out at second base to complete the double play.

Maybe they did mention it after the video clip ended, or maybe they didn't realize Laird was covering second base. That was a great moment in what turned out to be a disappointing day.

That's actually exactly why I was looking for the video... using it to illustrate to some 12 year olds that regardless of position there is a place for you on every play.

Laird had another one a couple years ago... routine, can of corn, fly ball to right (Laird was CF at the time) and at the last minute the RF lost the ball in the lights and bailed out. Laird was hustling over and made a diving catch for the out.

Those plays never happen 1,000 times... but that 1,001st time and you're there and it is a game changer.
