Watch Robinson Canó Play First Triple-A Game In SpongeBob Jersey
Something you never thought you'd see
Did you ever think that you’d see Robinson Canó play baseball in a SpongeBob SquarePants jersey? Of course you didn’t.
The 39-year-old former All-Star has found himself in the minors after a short stint with the San Diego Padres where he batted .091 in 12 games, accepting an assignment with the Triple-A El Paso Chihuahuas. In what can only be described as fortunate timing, his first game falls on SpongeBob SquarePants night at Southwest University Park.
Canó, who has made more than $200 million in his storied career, likely doesn’t have much reason to play in the minor leagues other than a love for the game, and a hope that he can find a way back to the big leagues. It’s an admirable idea and looks like it’s getting off to a hot start, as Canó needed just one at-bat to drive in a run.
Respect to Robinson Canó, and here is to hoping the Chihuahuas break out some Squidward jerseys at some point.
