Manny Ramirez makes a catch to start a double play

I'm not much of a fan of the Red Sox, but even I can't resist Manny Ramirez. Here's a clip of him making a nice running catch and then throwing the ball back in to get a double play last week against the Baltimore Orioles. Why is this so interesting? Notice how he makes sure to give the Red Sox fan in the bleachers a high-five in the middle of the play!
