Ken Giles is just a crazy dude. We will never be able to forget what happened on May 2 this year. Giles came into the game in the ninth inning, tied 0-0 with the Yankees. But it was his worst outing of the season, giving up four runs. The Astros ultimately lost 4-0. Walking off the mound, Giles obviously wasn't happy. So he decided to take it out on himself in the most physical way possible.

​​ Yeah, exactly.





The dude is nuts. However, apparently punching yourself in the face actually works. Giles has been on absolute fire since his meltdown.

Update: With tonight's series-clinching save vs. Cleveland, #Kenneth Giles is now 5-for-5 in saves since punching himself in the face. ERA still 0.00. #Astros https://t.co/6GEopdiKbV — Ben DuBose (@BenDuBose) May 21, 2018

Giles has been solid out of the bullpen. He is a perfect 8-for-8 in save opportunities this year and has been a big part of the Astros' ​pitching success.





The punch came after blowing a tie game. I would hate to see what he would do to himself if he ever actually blew a save.
