Unassisted triple play

No, not Jack in little league,but the Tribe's Asdrubal Cabrera. On Monday night the Cleveland Indian second baseman turned only the 14th such feat in Major League history. To put it into perspective there have been 15 perfect games which makes the unassisted triple play the rarest of baseball achievements. What's really cool about the play-by-play call is that even before Cabrera caught the ball the announcers were calling 'triple play, triple play.' The runners were moving on the pitch and the broken bat liner was so close to second base Cabrera couldn't help but turn the rare three-out play.
