Carlos Correa claims tattoo is responsible for the Jose Altuve ‘rip-off jersey’ drama

Error 0:

Carlos Correa was so close to regaining some respect until he dropped the most ridiculous explanation for Jose Altuve’s 2019 ALCS jersey incident.

Per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, Carlos Correa claims Jose Altuve didn’t want his jersey ripped off following a walk-off homer to send the Astros to the World Series due to a bad and unfinished tattoo on his collarbone.

That is quite literally the worst excuse yet.

A bad, unfinished tattoo. That’s what Altuve is thinking about rounding third on his way to the World Series?
