Rhys Hoskins embarrassingly pimps foul ball during loss

Rhys Hoskins made Rhys Hoskins look very foolish during Thursday’s game.

In the seventh inning against the New York Mets on Thursday, the Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins was up at the plate with a runner on first and nobody out. With the score tied 1-1 at Citi Field in New York, N.Y., Hoskins turned on a 1-1 offering from New York’s David Peterson and hooked it down the line in left field.

Hoskins clearly thought that he had hit a home run, dramatically dropping his bat and watching the ball sail off into space. Unfortunately for Hoskins though, that space was on the outside of the foul pole, meaning that it was just a loud foul ball for strike 2.

To make matters even more humiliating, Hoskins proceeded to ground into a momentum-killing double play four pitches later. Here is the video of the foul-ball pimp job by Hoskins.
