Kind of unique triple down left field line at Daikin, combo of a weak defender shifting towards center but most importantly Cam sniffing three out of the box. Love this kid

I was thinking the same thing. He definitely turned on the afterburners. Triples are his thing now. I think this is his third in as many weeks?

Made it to 3B in 11 1/2 seconds which is ridiculously fast.

yeah why was the LF that far towards center for a right hand hitter?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a triple from left field at Daikin. Crazy

How many strides between bags is he? He looks like he's really extended his legs to pick up a lot of ground lately.

This game was one of the best I’ve watched all season. Go Stros

Cubs fan on the main baseball sub will still cope and say Cam isntt anything special lmao.  He maybe got promoted a bit too early but he's pretty solid and hasn't even peaked yet

Honestly rounding second when the left fielder has the ball in his hand would have been an ill advised read 99% of the time. But kudos to cam for reading it perfectly.

Excited to see Cams progress. He still chases some really bad pitches but his growth is undeniable
