Cruz Missile
The Tigers are up 3-0 after three innings, but the bottom of the third ended with Dmitri Young thrown out at the plate by Nelson Cruz. Young was at second with two out when Pudge Rodriguez singled to right. Gene Lamont waved Young around third. Cruz fired home, and Gerald Laird waited a good two second before he needed to make the tag. It's not often you see someone thrown out at the play by 20 feet.

You obviously haven't seen Jason Giambi try to score from second on a single.
Or David Ortiz try to score from third on a double.
Or Frank Thomas try to stretch a triple into a single.
