A's Laureano HR Robbing catch MLB play of the week

Ramon Laureano has already made several spectacular defensive plays this season, but none better than his catch taking away a home run that earned the center fielder the MLB play of the week.

On Sunday in the second inning, Teoscar Hernández of the Blue Jays looked to have hit a home run to deep center field at the Oakland Coliseum. Laureano, timing his jump perfectly, reached over the fence and grabbed the home run ball for an out.
