Jose Siri made an amazing catch in the top of the ninth inning and then got a hit in the bottom half, helping the Tampa Bay Rays win 4-3 against the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday night.

Amed Rosario doubled to start the ninth, moved to third on Alex Jackson’s sacrifice bunt, and scored on Siri’s hit.

Siri said his catch was “pretty impressive” and he stayed focused throughout.
