Twins pull off beautiful triple play in first inning against Yankees

Show Caption

The Minnesota Twins gave us something that we unfortunately don't get to see all that often – a beautiful triple play against the New York Yankees. 

Seriously, triple plays seem to be so rare. We need more of these in our baseball lives. Especially on a nice summer night when there isn't a lot going on in the sports world.

The Yankees had runners on first and second with no outs in the first and looked like they could be getting ready for a big inning in Minnesota.

But instead they watched as the Twins turned an Edwin Encarnacion grounder into this triple play:

Beautiful.
