The Game 2 hug

When Alvarado rushed the field, Altuve was a little startled but he handled the situation with class and gave him a hug. 

The star said he was willing to take a picture with the fan, but security arrived before he could.

According to KHOU 11’s Daniel Gotera, the fan told Altuve, “I spent all my money on the game, we need to win.”

Altuve replied back saying, “Yes we will.”

After the brief embrace, security escorted Alvarado off the field.
