Overview
- On Monday, Taylor Trammell completed a full home‑run trot after hitting a 110.4 mph fly that Statcast projected at 419 feet but Myles Straw grabbed it at the Daikin Park wall so the play was ruled an out.
- Straw’s leaping catch helped Blue Jays starter Shane Bieber secure a 3–1 win in that game by ending a potential Astros rally in the fourth inning.
- A Jomboy Media clip of Trammell’s base circle went viral and teammates responded with lighthearted ribbing, turning the moment into a widely shared social‑media meme.
- Hours later, Trammell answered by hitting a legitimate three‑run, 388‑foot homer in the fifth inning on Tuesday to help the Astros win 7–2 and even the series.
- The sequence underlines how park geometry can change outcomes that Statcast rates as elite, and it arrives as Houston manages outfield rotation and new additions such as Daulton Varsho while pushing through the late‑season race.
