No. 8: Pagan’s Body Slam

Unfortunately, Angel Pagan didn’t have as many moments as he did in past seasons. But this one definitely stood out the most. Three people ran onto the field, and while AT&T Park security was painfully slow in attempting to corral them, Pagan decided to take things into his own hands. One person approached posey, the other attempted to get near Madison Bumgarner, but was promptly scared away as MadBum waved his glove as if to say “this is not the person you want to mess with.” Bumgarner’s misleading jedi mind-tricks sent the guy straight into the arms of Angel Pagan, who when greased up and injected with loads of steroids, could probably pass for a pro wrestler (WWE should give him a call when he quits baseball, just saying).

As the guy ran up to Pagan, he duped him into thinking that he was about to embrace the man. Instead Pagan picked him up and body slammed him into the AT&T Park turf. A moment many laughed at, and one moment I don’t think I’ll ever forget.
