Perhaps we should have known a home run was coming during Alex Bregman’s first at-bat in Game 6 of the World Series on Tuesday night.
Bregman showed up to Minute Maid Park in Houston wearing the same outfit that he wore to Games 3-5 in Washington, all of which the Astros won.

Bregman was asked in his postgame interview after the Game 5 win on Sunday whether he would wear his lucky shirt again for Game 6 and said “oh yeah. You’ll probably be seeing that shirt as long as none of my teammates rip it up because it might be smelly.”
.@ABREG_1's worn the same 'fit before Games 3-5 and he's wearing it again before Game 6.

Bregman joked that teammate George Springer sprays his shirt with cologne to cover up the smell.
We’re guessing nobody on Houston cares about the odor as long as Bregman keeps crushing home runs like he did with a monstrous shot in Game 6.
If the Astros win the World Series, Bregman says he will probably wear the shirt to the victory parade.
