Dodgers: Steven Souza Jr Was So Pumped Up After His Homerun That He Almost Made A Huge Mistake

Friday night was a really big moment for Dodgers outfielder Steven Souza Jr. Not only did he hit a big homerun and make an incredible catch down the line, but he did it in a place that almost ended his playing career.

The last time Souza was at Chase Field, it resulted in a devastating knee injury that derailed everything. He slipped on home plate in 2019 during an exhibition game and missed that entire year. Since then, he’s bounced around with a few teams before landing with the Dodgers.
