Looks like it hasn't been updated in a few years. The Buehrle between the legs glove flip has to go on any list that's up to date. Still, that's an awesome video.

It's play number 6...

It's play number 6...

They flashed it so quickly that I missed it first time through.

Yeah, that's the only problem with the video, it was too quick to appreciate the context of some of those plays like the pucket catch and the wise perfect game saver.

I always liked the Edmonds catch. Not the best but it just looked so cool!

Greatest is Brooks...

"The 2-2 to May. Swing, ground ball, third-base side. Brooks Robinson's got it, throwing from foul ground toward first base. It is ...IN TIME!"

[scOtt]

And I didn't see the Ozzie Smith play, where he dove, the ball took a bad hop and he caught it with his bare hand. Otherwordly, that.

There were so many great defensive guys in the 90's jeeze

o

A. Was that Garry Templeton or Ozzie Smith at # 1 ???

B. Ron Swoboda in the '69 series and Brooks Robinson in the '70 World Series' were classics.

C. I think that the Pete Rose catch in the 1980 World Series should have been in there. Bob Boone muffed a foul ball pop-up ......... only to have Charlie Hustle catch it on the rebound before it hit the ground. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FCI/is_8_64/ai_n15343188/

Devon White (play 19) was at Camden Yards, right?

This is way I love baseball.

I remember seeing Griffey breaking his wrist catching that Kevin Bass shot. I was genuinely bummed...Griffey was an Orioles killer, but he was still the best.

Ozzie. And I know this is blasphemous, but I never really understood the hype behind that play. They say the ball hit a rock, bounced back behind him...to me, it looked like he dove past where he thought the ball was going to be.

Either way, I think there have been several better infield plays than that one. I understand that that play took place in the late 70's when baseball on tv was still emerging and it was flashed all over This Week in Baseball for an entire country to see...context has something to do with it. But yeah. I don't get it 100%.
