This double play started by Sal Frelick is without a doubt the wildest moment of the 2025 MLB Playoffs. And even Frelick couldn't believe what just happened after it went down!

On Monday, the Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers met for Game 1 of the NLCS, with the winner of the best-of-seven series headed to the World Series. In the top of the fourth inning, the Dodgers were threatening with the game's first score as Los Angeles had the bases loaded with one out and Max Muncy at the plate. Muncy ended up putting the ball in play, but even he surely couldn't have seen the outcome of this coming.

With a 1-0 count, Muncy took pitcher Quinn Priester deep to center field for what could have very well been a grand slam. Frelick, however, was able to jump and get the ball in his glove before it popped out and hit the wall. The Brewers' center fielder recovered the ball while in the air in an incredibly deft maneuver before throwing to shortstop Joey Ortiz for a play at home. Ortiz's throw was on the money, as the ball beat Teoscar Hernández to the base for the force out.

But the chaos didn't end there! Frelick's catch was not an out, as he caught the ball off a wall bounce, so the force out at home was the first out of the double play. The second came when catcher William Contreras walked the ball to third for the force out amidst the chaos on the Dodgers' base paths.

Wow! Here's how it all went down.

Talk about a bonkers series of events. It took awhile for people to realize that the double play was the force out at home then at third, but eventually after a replay both outs were confirmed and the inning was over.

Perhaps the best part of the sequence was Frelick looking absolutely stunned in the outfield after all the chaos.

What an absolute treat of a play.
