Jake McCarthy (OF - COL)
5/13/26 10:47 PM - Rockies' Jake McCarthy becomes first left fielder since 2013 to record unassisted double play. Jake McCarthy recorded the first unassisted double play by a left fielder in the big leagues since 2013, accomplishing the feat for the Colorado Rockies against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday. McCarthy charged in on a sinking line drive from Bryan Reynolds, catching the ball on a full sprint for the second out of the first inning. Pittsburgh’s Oneil Cruz — who started on second base — was near third when McCarthy made the catch, so the 28-year-old continued to jog toward the infield, stepping on second for the final out.
