Astros' Altuve shines with jump-throw in Game 2 of ALDS

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve made one of the best plays of the MLB playoffs in Game 2 of the American League Division Series against the Seattle Mariners.

In the top of the third, with two outs and a runner on second base, Altuve ranged deep to his right and into the outfield grass to field a ground ball up the middle. That's when the amazing leap happened and he jumped to throw out Mariners hitter Julio Rodriguez at first base.

It wasn't like Rodriguez wasn't hustling down the first-base line. According to Statcast, he was running at 30.8 feet per second and made it to first base in 4.25 seconds.
