Los Angeles Angels right fielder Jo Adell made headlines in April when he robbed three home runs in one game. On Tuesday night, he gave one back.
In a play he’d probably like to forget, Adell raced toward the right-field wall to track down a fly ball off TJ Rumfield’s bat in the fourth inning against the Colorado Rockies.
Adell appeared to get under the ball for an easy out, but in a flashback to the infamous Jose Canseco play from May 1993, the ball nicked off his glove, then bounced off his head and over the fence for a solo home run.
The unfortunate play gave the Rockies an 8-0 lead. Adell shook it off and appeared to be OK aside from being a little red in the face.
Colorado went on to win 8-2.
The play bore an eerie resemblance to Canseco’s defensive blunder from 33 years ago, which happened when he was a member of the Texas Rangers and also occurred at the right-field wall. The Rangers lost that game 7-6 to Cleveland.
Adell actually made a similar outfield gaffe against the Rangers on Aug. 9, 2020, his rookie season, when a fly ball bounced off his glove — but not his head — and went over the fence. The play did not go down as a homer, however; instead, Adell was charged with a rare four-base error.
Still, Adell seemed an unlikely candidate to mimic Canseco’s blooper. On April 5, he lit up social media when he made three homer-robbing catches, the last a spectacular leaping grab while crashing into the seats near the right-field foul pole in the ninth inning of a 1-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners.
