I've seen plenty of underhand glove flips but never overhand from this kind of distance. Not only does he flip it out of the glove, he does it accurately and with a good amount of velocity on the throw. This would be the basketball equivalent of making a contested jumpshot left handed.

The execution was phenomenal, but to be honest I don't like the decision.  Looks to me like he had time to execute the transfer to his throwing hand and still get the out.  If the ball comes out of the glove wrong there, the runner that started on second would almost surely score.  Great play, but I question the wisdom.
