Just as the ball seemed poised to get through the infield, Suarez made a slick backhanded stop as he spun down on one knee. He ran and touched second base before firing the throw to first base just in time to get Ethier and end the inning.
"He hit it so hard. My reaction was to stay on the ball and I caught it," Suarez said. "After that, I made the double play. It's not an easy play but I made it. I'm happy."
Manager Bryan Price said he predicted that very play would be turned.
"It's funny because I was standing next to [bench coach Jay Bell] and I said, 'We're going to go six-unassisted-three right here,'" Price explained.
