    All hands! Watch this double play turn.

    In addition to JT Riddle’s great play, Dee Gordon shows off how to use your hands to turn a quick double play. Notice where his hands are as he waits for the baseball. The ball travels faster in the air so Dee keeps them nice and close to his chest. He also has the throwing hand and glove next to each other for a smooth exchange. Quick hands. Quick turn.
