It wasn’t pretty but the play by the Ryu on a weak ground ball toward 1st made the list. Ryu fielded the ball and was close to Adrian Gonzalez but was headed away from the bag so he flipped it toward Gonzalez who caught with his bare hand against his shoulder.  This game was on April 18th against the Rockies but it didn’t help the Dodgers win as they lost to the Rockies 4 – 3.

At that point in the season, Adrian Gonzalez was still the Dodger 1st baseman and Cody Bellinger was tearing up Oklahoma. Gonzalez had started thirteen games and had yet to hit a home run.
