Blockbuster trade for Rortvedt.

"Sánchez’s departure raises a question about the Yankees’ starting catcher situation, hinting at another move potentially to follow. Kyle Higashioka is the incumbent backup behind the plate, and Rob Brantly is also on the 40-man roster. The 24-year-old Rortvedt made his big league debut last year, picking up 15 hits in 89 at-bats (.169). He was regarded as the best defensive catcher in the Twins' organization, according to Baseball America, and has previously worked with Bombers catching coach Tanner Swanson."

I have a question: Can Rortvedt tag out a base runner when the throw beats him the runner by six steps?
