Watch: Virginia Baseball Turns Unconventional Triple Play After Near-Mistake

Members of the Virginia baseball team turned an impressive triple play in an ACC game against Pittsburgh on Sunday afternoon. However, the Cavaliers almost weren’t able to pull it off after a nearly disastrous blunder.

In the bottom of the fifth inning with the bases loaded and no outs, Panthers infielder Bryce Hulett hit a chopper over to third base. Virginia’s Jake Gelof fielded the ball cleanly and threw home to Cavaliers catcher Kyle Teel to record the first out. Teel then fired the ball down to first base to nab the Pittsburgh batter for the second out of the inning.
