Smash and grab: Another highlight for Buxton

MINNEAPOLIS -- The outfield walls at Target Field have gotten pummeled on quite a few occasions by Twins center fielder Byron Buxton during his short tenure with Minnesota over the course of several highlight-reel leaping, wall-smashing catches.

Those poor walls got another faceful of Buxton in the 10th inning of Minnesota's 3-2 loss to the Rangers on Friday evening. Buxton raced back to the warning track on a deep fly ball off the bat of Rougned Odor and made a flying catch while crashing into the fence in front of the Texas bullpen to prevent the Rangers from adding to their lead after Ian Desmond's leadoff homer.
