Watch: Angels RP Hansel Robles nails runner trying to score on wild pitch
Los Angeles Angels reliever Hansel Robles brought a hockey move to the field on Sunday.
Robles was in to close out the Angels’ 7-3 win over the Kansas City Royals. He allowed two hits and got two outs before tossing a wild pitch. Kelvin Gutierrez was tagged out thanks to Robles physically leveling him and keeping him from reaching the plate.
Lol, sorry, Hansel Robles, but you are certainly not allowed to do this pic.twitter.com/PuU12sJqQO

Hansel Robles dropped the hammer, “Undertaker” style. The play, of course, was overturned. pic.twitter.com/FfYDlrcZZ5

Though Gutierrez was initially called out, the play was overturned. You’re not allowed to physically block the plate the way Robles did.
That run made it 7-3, but Robles was able to get the final out of the game two batters later. He made it real fun before doing so though.
