Los Angeles Dodgers Reliever Landon Knack Caught Some Heat From His Fiancée After an Error in Wednesday's Win

The right-hander got a quick flyout to start the inning, and got away with an elevated fastball against Royals rookie Carter Jensen, who popped it up on the infield. Knack first glanced around at his infielders, likely expecting someone to come in and field the ball, but realized he was the closest player to it and attempted to make a play. The ball kicked off Knack's glove and rolled to first baseman Freddie Freeman, putting the tying runner on base in a 4-2 ballgame.

Knack struck the following two batters out to close the inning and ensure his mistake didn't bring home a run, and retired the side in order in the ninth inning for his first save of the season. After the game, Knack's fianceé Anisa Herlinda Garcia posted a video on her Instagram story of her lobbing a stuffed toy in Knack's direction, which he caught. She captioned the story "he can catch!!

1ST SAVE OF THE YEAR". Knack, 29, has pitched for the Dodgers in parts of three seasons, spanning back to 2024.
