Freeland made a sensational play to retire Austin Nola opening the fifth. Nola hit a soft dribbler down the third base line and Freeland hopped off the mound, gloved the ball, took two steps and made a jump throw — reminiscent of Derek Jeter — to first baseman C.J. Cron, who made a nice stretch to retire the runner. Freeland ended up sprawled face down in foul territory.
