MLB outfielders are having quite a week.
Jason Heyward of the Chicago Cubs gunned down Matt Holliday during a 2-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday. New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks nailed the Oakland Athletics' Danny Valencia with a 105.5 mph frozen rope from left field Wednesday.
Not to be left out, Yasiel Puig of the Los Angeles Dodgers showed off his stellar arm during Friday's game against the Colorado Rockies.
During the fifth inning, Puig picked up a deep fly ball hit off the wall by Rockies shortstop Trevor Story. He proceeded to uncork a 93.5 mph rocket that traveled 310 feet and nabbed the speedy Story at third.

The Dodgers lost 7-5, but Puig stole the highlight.
