Let’s face it, we all have bad days that can ruin things for us.
But this MLB star had some of the worst luck you will ever see.
One of the top infielders in the MLB might have just screwed himself out of $70,000,000 after this injury on opening day.
We all know that life just sucks sometimes.
Bad things just happen whether it’s during everyday activities or in sports.
In sports, who can forget the bad breaks like “the catch” that never happened and screwed Dallas out of a playoff win.
Six years ago today: Controversy in Green Bay. Did Dez Bryant catch it?
The aftermath of this was crazy.

Or that time back in Super Bowl XIII when Jackie Smith dropped a pass that would have easily given the Cowboys a Super Bowl win.
With 2:41 left in the third quarter of Super Bowl XIII, a wide open #Cowboys TE Jackie Smith dropped a sure 10-yard pass from Roger Staubach in the end zone, which would've tied the #Steelers at 21.

But of all the bad luck in sports, we might have just seen the worst and most costly mistake in sports history.
Ke’Bryan Hayes has been a rising star since making his MLB debut in 2020.
It is without a doubt that Hayes has made the Pittsburgh Pirates a better team.

And the Pirates knew it and granted Hayes a $70,000,000 contract extension right before the opening day game.
BREAKING: Ke’Bryan Hayes and the Pittsburgh Pirates are in agreement on a eight-year, $70 million contract extension that includes a club option for a ninth season, according to sources familiar with the situation.

But to solidify his millions, all Hayes had to do was pass a physical after the game.
He has not signed the contract yet. It’s pending physical.

As it turns out, the guy had some of the worst luck you will ever see that gave him the scare of his life.
While trying to make a routine fly ball catch, Hayes ended up hurting his wrist.

Can you imagine the feelings he was going through after having to leave the game?
$70,000,000 flashing before his eyes.
But now there seems to be hope that Ke’Bryan Hayes will actually still get the contract extension even with the injury.
