Why are teams still testing their luck on the Boston Red Sox outfield?

Yet another runner was thrown out by the Red Sox, who lead the league in outfield assists with 42. This time, it was center fielder Kiké Hernández who did the honors.

To get the final out of the sixth inning, Hernández hosed Jonathan Villar down with help of Rafael Devers at third base.

A run did score but it was a terrific throw nonetheless. And it ended the inning for Boston to get out of a bases-loaded jam.

You can watch it here.

That is the second impressive throw in two days from Hernández.
