Dodgers turn first 2-5-6-3 triple play in history but Padres cry foul over umpire’s actions
By Kevin Kaduk | Big League Stew – 14 hours ago
Before Sunday, it had been 130 years since anyone turned a similar type of bizarre triple play that the Los Angeles Dodgers turned against the San Diego Padres in the ninth inning of a 5-4 win.
But with the logistics involved and the help from the home plate umpire that the Dodgers received, it'll probably take another 130 years for anyone to do it again.

Guzman and the two baserunners stayed put as they thought the bunt was foul after home plate umpire Dale Scott threw his hands up in a dead ball motion, but catcher A.J. Ellis followed through on the play. He picked up the ball and started the 270 feet of throws as Scott then pointed that the ball was fair.
