The Boston Red Sox may have pulled off the strangest double play of the 2025 MLB season during Monday evening's matchup against the Tampa Bay Rays.
During the fourth inning, Rays infielder Junior Caminero came to the plate with runners on first and second and no outs. He proceeded to pop a foul ball high into the air in between home plate and third base. Red Sox catcher Connor Wong settled underneath it before third baseman Marcelo Mayer called him off and attempted to make the play. Umpires called an infield fly, but Mayer failed to make the catch as the ball dropped in fair territory. The runners took off for the next base, prompting Wong to throw the ball to third base, which was covered by Trevor Story.
