Last night Dustin Pedroia made one of the greatest defensive plays by a Red Sox player I've ever seen happen live (on TV). It might be the best. What he did was simply remarkable. The awareness of his surroundings, the physicality on display of being able to dive for the ball, bare hand it, and make the throw all while in the air. The accuracy of the throw. This is why he will be worth his contract right up until the end even if his bat continues to decline.
Holy shit.
In case you missed it, here's a link to it.

Where does this rank for you? What other plays do you put up there with it? I suppose it's worth it to throw non-Sox plays in as well if you want. No reason not to marvel at all the great defense people can dig up clips or memories for.
