Yasiel Puig’s stellar diving catch saved Rich Hill’s perfect game bid in the seventh inning

Rich Hill was on a roll on Saturday night against the Marlins. Although Clayton Kershaw’s return was a little anticlimactic given that the Dodgers lost the series opener on Friday, Hill is more than making up for it. He had a no-no working in the seventh inning.

And to keep that impressive streak going, you not only need excellent pitch selection, you also need a helping hand from your teammates. But if you said that Yasiel Puig — who was playing in the minors a few weeks back — would be the one to do it, we wouldn’t believe you.

But he did! What a diving catch! In fact, this was only Puig’s second career start in left field. The last time he was in left field was on June 23rd 2013.

Thank you based Puig. #PuigHillsFriend
