Cleveland Guardians relief pitcher Emmanuel Clase wore an epic custom glove for the American League while also joining some rare company during the Major League Baseball All-Star Game on Tuesday.
Cleveland Guardians relief pitcher Emmanuel Clase made a statement during the MLB All-Star Game, both with his custom glove and his performance on the mound while helping the American League to a 5-3 victory at Globe Life Field.Clase, who hails from the Dominican Republic, wore a glove that featured the Spanish words, "La Kabra", which translates to "The Goat" in English, or in this case, "The GOAT", or Greatest Of All Time.
In addition to the transcription, the glove also included an image of an actual goat wearing a Guardians hat and rocking Clase's own dyed hair.Clase struck out New York Mets slugger Pete Alonso, got Cincinnati Reds rising star Elly De La Cruz to ground out to second, then struck out Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds to end the game after San Diego Padres rookie Jackson Merrill reached on an infield single.
In doing so, Clase notched his second career All-Star Game save. He's just the fourth pitcher in MLB history, since saves became an official statistic in 1969, to record multiple career saves in the All-Star Game, joining Baseball Hall of Famers Mariano Rivera, Dennis Eckersley and Bruce Sutter, according to Sarah Slangs of MLB.com.Tim Capurso is a staff writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
