It’s playoff baseball and hugs are in the air.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig was thrown out trying to steal in the bottom of the sixth inning against the Atlanta Braves on Friday night. He was such dead meat at second base that he decided to hug Charlie Culberson while being tagged out.

Puig and Culberson were teammates on the Dodgers the past two seasons, so it’s not as weird as you might think. Plus, maybe he was taking a page from Javy Baez.
