SAN FRANCISCO — Dominican Republic left fielder Moises Sierra made the defensive play of the night on Monday when he dove into the AT&T Park stands and caught a foul ball hit by Andruw Jones of the Netherlands. The grab ended the top half of the first inning, stranded a Dutch runner at third and limited the Netherlands to the only run it’d score in the Dominican’s 4-1 victory in the World Baseball Classic semifinal .
What made Sierra’s grab particularly impressive was that he did it on the opposite side of a Netherlands fan who looked like he was about to catch the ball with his own glove. But it was Sierra who actually came up with the ball, which was a quite different result than the last time a Dominican ballplayer named Moises competed with a fan for a ball during an important game.
