SAD NEWS ; When Jose Altuve showed his bare foot to the umpire, he was dismissed harshly.
I bet you’ve never seen THIS happen before in baseball!
Jose Altuve grounded out against the San Diego Padres to end the ninth inning on Tuesday night, but the Houston Astros second baseman alleged that he hit the ball off his foot for a foul ball.
That happens a lot, right? There was a lot of discussion with umpires … and then Altuve took off his cleat on his left foot AND his sock to show where he got hit.
What do you think happened next? Yep. He got thrown out, and it was quite a scene. Sadly, you can’t do that.
