The Stand Up Triple

Jose Reyes just had one, and I honestly don't think I've ever seen one before, absent some outfield play that could be considered an error or some odd ballpark dimension that causs a pinball effect. Kenny Lofton was playing shallow, Reyes golfed the ball over his head, it rolled to the wall (and not too slowly), and Reyes was in at third standing up.

Is Lofton's arm that bad, or is Reyes really that fast?

reyes is very fast. lofton is meh.

reyes has got to be one of the top 5 fastest players in MLB.

Probably because of "some odd ballpark dimension," eh?

I think Julio Franco had one the other day.
