Rusney lays out to make tremendous catch

MINNEAPOLIS -- Rusney Castillo's re-entry to the Red Sox had been pretty uneventful until the bottom of the sixth inning Tuesday night, when the right fielder made a highlight-reel grab.

Playing fairly shallow against Minnesota's Kurt Suzuki, Castillo raced to the gap in right-center to make a sensational diving catch. The ball looked almost as if it was behind Castillo when he reached back and hauled it in.

Castillo tumbled over and hung on to the ball, taking at least two bases away from Suzuki.

Starting pitcher Clay Buchholz pointed to Castillo in recognition after he threw the ball back in.
