A double-play that was, literally, off-the-wall. Rangers (4/26) had Blaylock on second, Botts doubles off the wall. Runner is thrown out at the plate, and then Botts gunned down trying to go to third on the throw. 8-6-2-5. This might also be the first time a runner from second ever failed to score on a double off the wall, without any tag-up confusion on whether the catch was made.
