Kyle Tucker booed at Wrigley Field for not hustling

Chicago Cubs fans are not exactly pleased right now with the Kyle Tucker experience.

The Cubs outfielder received boos during Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Ill. With Chicago trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the sixth inning, Tucker hit a slow groundball to the right side of the infield.

Instead of running out the grounder, Tucker simply took a few steps out of the box … and then gave up. Though Tucker was never going to beat out that ball in the first place, the presumed apathy from him did not sit well with the home crowd.

Here is the video (in which you can hear the audible boos from the Cubs faithful over Tucker’s lack of hustle).
