A few prospects in the SF Giants farm system pulled off a fantastic double play that received national attention. In the sixth inning of Richmond Flying Squirrels’ (Giants Double-A affiliate) game against the Erie SeaWolves on Tuesday, Richmond shortstop Mitchell Tolman made a fantastic diving stop on a groundball up the middle. Tolman flicked his glove and tossed the ball to second baseman Simon Whiteman, who quickly rifled a throw to first baseman David Villar, who made a fantastic play of his own to tag out Andre Lipcius after Whiteman’s throw pulled him off the bag.
