Longoria makes 'difficult plays look easy'

ST. PETERSBURG -- Rays fans have seen the highlight reel so many times in the past in which Evan Longoria flashes the leather to save runs.

Tuesday night, in the Rays' 3-1 win over the Orioles, Longoria came up big in the field and made what likely turned out to be the play of the game.

The Orioles had the bases loaded with one out in the fourth and appeared to have Rays starter Jake Odorizzi on the ropes. Enter Longoria.

Caleb Joseph pulled a ball that seemed like it would get between third and short.
