Yasiel Puig makes ridiculous throw after missing catch at the wall

Most baseball fans know Yasiel Puig has a strong arm. But throwing a guy out at third base with a short-hop bomb from the right-center gap is amazing.

The Dodgers' right fielder was unable to catch Trevor Story's fifth-inning shot that caromed off the right field wall just above the 375-foot sign at Coors Field. Puig retrieved the ball just in front of the warning track and rifled a perfect throw to get Story at third.

The throw was right on target and Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner was able to scoop the ball off a short hop right in front of the bag to tag out a diving Story.
