The Los Angeles Dodgers were threatening to score in the third inning of Wednesday’s game, but the Chicago Cubs defense came to the rescue, capping off the inning with a great double play.
Following a one-out double, Kyle Schwarber’s arm prevented the Dodgers from scoring after a single was hit to left field. That set up this play, as Justin Turner hit a fly ball to Jason Heyward, who camped under it, fired a strike to home plate, where Willson Contreras made a great play to get the tag.

And in the process Contreras got a bloody nose.

He’ll take it for the double play.
