Kiké Hernández’s Face Said It All After Freddie Freeman’s Incredible Scoop

In this story:
Enrique Hernández returned to the Dodgers lineup for the first time in nearly two months on Tuesday after five rehab appearances in Triple A. The Dodgers beat the Reds 6-3 in Hernández's first game back for their third straight win. Hernández went 2-for-3 at the plate, driving in a run and scoring another.
Hernández was also tested in the field as he handled a bouncing ball hit by Spencer Steer in the top of the eighth and had to hurry a throw to Freddie Freeman at first. Hernández's throw hit the grass in front of first and took a hard bounce towards Freeman who made a great play to snag it just before Steer hit the bag.
As somebody who used to play first, just crazy to have hands like this. Also, Enrique face. pic.twitter.com/mio0DmKaEh

Hernández's face was a combination of amazement and agony. And probably some other complex emotions. It's actually hard to tell because it's just such a funny face to see a person make.

The Dodgers currently have a one-game lead over the Padres in the NL East.
