You mean a ball where she had to move like 3 inches to her left.

It looked like it deflected off the pitcher?s glove - regardless of how far she had to move or not move, still very quick reaction and awareness to make not only the first putout, but the second and third ones also.

EDIT: I looked at it again - it was more like three strides and she had to adjust her timing on the pathway to the ball because of the deflection.

Very athletic play.

Technically, I think she 1) made the first putout with an assist from the pitcher 2) made the second putout unassisted and 3) assisted the first basemun with on a fielders choice for the the third putout.

If the pitcher hadn?t deflected the ball, she could?ve had a chance to run down and tag out the runner coming from first and make an unassisted triple play, but since the pitcher did deflect the ball so it couldn?t have been an unassisted triple play, why fuck with it right?
