BOSTON — The Atlanta Braves turned a triple play in the third inning against the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night — the first triple play in MLB this season.

Center fielder Michael Harris II caught a shallow fly by Triston Casas and threw to first after Adam Duvall had strayed too far.

The throw easily got Duvall, then first baseman Matt Olson alertly fired the ball across the diamond in plenty of time to get Masataka Yoshida at third after he tagged up and attempted to advance on Duvall's running gaffe.

Harris held up his arms and leaped as Austin Riley tagged out Yoshida, who was several steps away from the bag when Olson's throw arrived.
