Arenado dove to his left to stop the ball before it squirted out of his glove, and he grabbed it with his bare hand. Twirling on his back, Arenado fired a strike across the diamond to Mark Reynolds just in time to beat Blach.
Arenado, who trailed Kris Bryant by roughly 58,000 votes in the latest round of the Esurance MLB All-Star Game Ballot voting results, also gave the Rockies a 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning with a two-run single.
