Granted, Tex probably deserves more credit for covering second base, but I don't think every shortstop in the majors makes that play. How many take the ball and just throw to third?
Between that play, the play on Punto, and the one at second base before the Twins scored he always seems to have great instincts and takes advantage of other team's mistakes.
