'I have flashbacks from it': The tragic backstory behind Kyle Farmer's highlight catch

CHICAGO – When Cincinnati Reds players and coaches returned to the clubhouse after their 4-3 victory at Wrigley Field on Tuesday, a lot of the discussion centered around Kyle Farmer’s over-the-shoulder running catch in the eighth inning.

Jonathan India thought it was the best catch he’s seen from a shortstop this season. Manager David Bell said the clubhouse consensus was it was one of the best defensive plays they’ve seen all year.

“There is a backstory behind that play,” Farmer said.

Farmer has a flashback every time there is a low line drive in the Bermuda Triangle between left field, center field and shortstop.
