San Diego Padres shortstop Alexi Amarista displayed some flair in the field by sliding to stop a grounder through the infield, then making a spinning backhanded glove flip to start a double play during Wednesday's game against Atlanta.
Making the play more exciting, second baseman Jedd Gyorko caught the flip from Amarista with his bare hand before making a seamless throw to first.
You can't turn a double play much better than that.
