Didn't know his first hit was a triple. That's pretty cool.

I didn't know it either. That means we have something in common. Kinda like brats and dogs. OMGTHREADCROSSOVERINFRACTION!

You guys see Jose Altuve's baserunning highlight from last night? First, he was stealing 2nd and there was an errant throw so he took 3rd on the error. Then, the home plate umpire sent him back to first, citing umpire interference. Replays showed the catcher hitting the ump's mask when making the throw. So, Altuve goes back to first and starts dancing around like a clown, like he's just gonna steal 2nd again.

Then promptly gets picked off. Dude caught so bad, he didn't even try to get back to the bag. Just stood there and let the 1st baseman tag him.
