Jose Altuve comically tripped and fell at second while going for a triple for the cycle

Jose Altuve had a fantastic game against the Royals on Saturday. He hit a double, a home run, a single, and he was set for a triple to complete the cycle, but unfortunately that triple turned into a double. Poor Altuve’s helmet fell off, hit his feet and tripped him up at second.

He took it like a great sport, as you can see him laughing as he goes falling. His teammate George Springer also couldn’t help but crack up. The Astros had fun with it, too.

Sometimes you’re so hot, that when a minor mistake happens, you can step back and laugh at it.

If you were thinking of hitting Altuve with the Crying MJ, don’t worry, that already happened.

The Astros are leading the Royals, 10-5, in the eighth inning.

Update: The Astros won, 13-5.
