ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Kyle McCann was called out in bizarre fashion during the second inning of the Oakland Athletics' game against the Angels on Wednesday when he failed to touch home plate and then made contact with a teammate who had already scored.
McCann followed Armando Alvarez home in apparently scoring on Max Schuemann's RBI double off Roansy Contreras. McCann stumbled approaching home and failed to step on the plate as he crossed it.
He nearly ran into Alvarez, who reached out to steady him and to encourage him to go back to touch the plate, which he did.
