Blue Jays centerfielder Kevin Pillar made another spectacular grab on Saturday afternoon against the Dodgers in a 6–2 loss.

With the Jays down 5–2 in the top of the ninth, Pillar ranged back to his right to track down a Carl Crawford fly ball and dove through the air, fully extended, to haul in the catch. A run scored on the play, but the play prevented additional damage.

Last month, Pillar crashed into the wall after robbing a Rays hitter of extra bases, and last year, he leapt through the air and made a similar grab to the one he made on Saturday.

Pillar finished 1-for-4 at the dish with an RBI and two strikeouts.
