Tony Sipp Pitches and Plays Outfield in the Same Inning

Multitasking.

In one of the stranger position moves you'll ever see in a game, Astros reliever Tony Sipp was moved from the mound to the outfield and back to the mound again, all in one inning. Sipp struck out Gerrardo Parra, watched from right as Jerome Williams walked Paul Goldschmidt and then was brought back to the mound, where he struck out Miguel Montero.

In terms of stuff that makes you sit up and take notice of what's going on in a game, this is right up there with position player pitching appearances.
