    He was definitely out of place and it was clear when it happened. Many posted it immediately. And you can even go back to when it happened in this thread. Everyone was just relieved, he luckily caught it awkwardly.


    I’ll stick with the tough hr robbery in right with the stros at 0 runs as a bigger change of the game

    The wind blew the ball and he was camped out under it for awhile, when the ball started drifting he slipped when he tried to move twice.

    He caught it awkwardly because he slipped twice.

    He looks legitimately depressed man. Under normal circumstances I'd feel bad for the guy, and he clearly is a competitor. But I lost respect for him after the dugout incident, charging a coach is pretty damn stupid, but what irks me more was him insulting Paredes and trying to make him look like a fool. The kid was just a rookie and getting his feet wet, likely a season before he was really ready.

    Well now Laureano looked dumb whiffing on that same rookie's wicked slider, and Paredes has grown up before our eyes.

    Bottom line...cry b****.

    tucker was on the move the entire time. there was no camping involved and especially "for awhile" at any point of this. he caught it awkwardly because he put himself out of position. going to his right, then having to recover and going to his left finally just reaching out and thank good ness catching it

    I feel the same way. Wish I could take credit for it but I stole it off Twitter. I’ve been posting it and sending it to friends after every win.

    I don't think it was Paredes. Might have been Humberto Castellanos but point remains the same.

    Also not sure if true but I want to say I heard someone on here say that last season he had a ball and faked tossed it to a Astros fan(or maybe the game was in Houston and he faked tossed the ball into the crowd) and laughed and walked away.

    Cole already looks terrible. Extremely shaky. Short rest is real
