Amy Franz tagged the Astros and Mariners on social media to return Alvarez's home run ball from his 1st MLB cycle.HOUSTON, Texas --
Houston signed Diaz to a minor-league deal on July 13, a week after Oakland, his previous team, released him. Diaz, a 33-year-old Cuban native, former All-Star, and utility player, is a nine-year major league veteran, previously spending four seasons with the Astros starting in 2019. The 28-year-old most notably played with the Astros during the 2022 world title season when the ballclub called on him mainly as a designated hitter. Hensley played 46 games on the major league roster over two seasons in Houston. The infielder's hit-by-pitch in Game 1 of the 2022 American League Division Series was instrumental in setting up Yordan Alvarez's walk-off homerun victory.
In particular, the homer was a 429-foot upper-deck shot that fell into the hands of Seattle fan Amy Franz, who posted a photo of herself and the historic baseball on X, the social platform formerly Twitter."Dear I have Yordan Alvarez Home Run Ball. It's worth more to him than me being as he hit for the cycle. Please find a way for me to get it to him," Franz posted.
