Astros' Alex Bregman, Nationals' Juan Soto Discuss Carrying Bats After HRs

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman took a page out of Pedro Cerrano's playbook in the movie Major League on Tuesday by carrying his bat to first base on his first-inning home run in Game 6 of the World Series.

Unlike Cerrano's trot with the bat around the bases, Bregman dropped it after first.

However, Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto then copied Bregman's act for his own blast in the fifth.

Both players were asked about the bat carrying postgame.

"I let my emotions get the best of me. I'm sorry for doing that," Bregman said, per Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet SW.
