In the bottom of the sixth inning Sunday as the Los Angeles Dodgers hosted the Houston Astros, reserve outfielder Jake Marisnick made the play of the game robbing Chris Taylor of a home run to the deepest part of the ball park.
Taylor got hold of a hanging curve and drove it to deep center. It looked like it was going to be out, but Marisnick had other ideas.

This would-be home run would have put the Astros in a 4-2 hole. Instead, they were able to escape the sixth inning down by just one run.
