Detroit's dynamic double-play duo at it again

DETROIT -- Tigers middle infielders Ian Kinsler and Jose Iglesias have made a habit of combining for spectacular double plays.

On Saturday afternoon against the Astros, the duo dazzled again. In the first inning, George Springer hit a hard ground ball back up the middle. With many other second basemen, it would've gone into center field for a single, but Kinsler made the backhand grab and flipped an underhanded toss to Iglesias. The shortstop turned and fired accurately to first baseman Miguel Cabrera despite a hard slide from Jonathan Villar.
