Alert the Fun Police, because we've got a pair of violators. AL All-Stars Jose Altuve of the Astros and Tigers star Miguel Cabrera traded "untucks" on Friday in Houston.
First, Altuve reached first base and was socializing with Cabrera while Miggy grabbed his jersey and pulled up, causing Altuve to become untucked, which is very uncouth on the baseball diamond. So Altuve had to call time and get his tuck back on. Altuve made one of those faces you make when a friend successfully pulls off a prank (here's a good look).
In true prank fashion, though, one good turn deserves another and Altuve untucked Cabrera's jersey just before a pitch -- and he broke for second to steal. Perfect move. Get in and get out.
Alas, the pitch was fouled off. Still, it was a great exchange. Love to see the players having fun.
Here's a quick Vine of both moves:
And the video of Altuve's retaliation:
