Ruf Has Hilarious Reaction To Yaz Robbing Him Of Homer, originally appeared on NBC Sports Bayarea
Darin Ruf couldn’t believe what one of his former teammates did in the first inning of Thursday’s game between the Giants and Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field.
With one out in the bottom of the first inning, Ruf, who signed with Milwaukee last week, crushed a 90 mph fastball from Giants pitcher Scott Alexander to center right, but a potential home run was robbed by former teammate Mike Yastrzemski.

As Ruf hit first base, he realized that a ball he thought was a home run or at least extra bases went into the glove of a jumping Yastrzemski. The former Giant couldn’t help but laugh as he looked to right field.
