Jo Adell robs 3 HRs, Hunter calls it greatest

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jo Adell made history by robbing three home runs in a 1-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners, earning rare praise from Hall of Famer Torii Hunter.

Adell's catches included leaping grabs against Cal Raleigh and Josh Naylor, and a spectacular ninth-inning catch against J.P. Crawford where he crashed into the stands. The catch was upheld after review.

Torii Hunter, watching from the bench, described the performance as "probably the greatest defensive game I’ve ever seen," noting he had never seen three robberies in one game. Adell now has 10 home run robberies since 2020, tied for the most in the majors.
