Detroit Tigers right fielder Brennan Boesch caught a sinking line drive while turning away from the ball after losing it in the lights during Tuesday night's game against the Kansas City Royals.
It happened in the top of the eighth inning when Kansas City Royals DH Billy Butler hit a line drive to right field. Boesch was standing in exactly the right spot so he didn't have to move. However, it wasn't an easy play as Boesch appeared to lose the ball in the lights at the last moment. Boesch turned away from the ball but still managed to catch it with his glove, preventing an extra-base hit.
The Tigers won the game 9-3.
