Andrew McCutchen Catch: Pirates Outfielder Makes Diving Grab, Then Finishes Double Play (VIDEO)

WATCH: Pirates All-Star Makes Spectacular Catch

With the Pittsburgh Pirates playing for sole possession of first place in the National League Central on Tuesday afternoon, center fielder Andrew McCutchen sent an early message: The Buccos' three-time All-Star showed he was all in for the win by going all out for this amazing catch.

With the St. Louis Cardinals threatening in the top of the first inning, McCutchen robbed Carlos Beltran of a base hit with a diving grab after ranging into right-center field. The 26-year-old then popped to his feet and doubled off Matt Holiday, who had been on his way to second base from first.
