Watch Dylan Crews hit a crazy walk-off for Rochester Red Wings

Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good.

Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good. In [autotag]Dylan Crews[/autotag]’ case, he is both. The former [autotag]Golden Spikes Award[/autotag] winner and star LSU outfielder secured a win for the [autotag]Rochester Red Wings[/autotag] on Tuesday night with a walk-off E6.

An E6, if you do not know, is an error on the shortstop. On this play, the shortstop attempts to flip the ball to second base for out No. 3 and to get Lehigh Valley out of the inning but his throw was off the mark and the errant throw led to a runner scoring to win the game for the Red Wings.

Crews has played in 24 games for the Red Wings and has five doubles, four homers, and 14 RBI and has a batting average of .257. He is one step away from playing in the major leagues. His next stop would be the [autotag]Washington Nationals[/autotag], who could use a good outfielder right now.

Former LSU star outfielder [autotag]Dylan Crews[/autotag] received the news that he is now one step closer to making his major league debut as he has been called up to the Washington Nationals Triple-A squad.

Crews started his season with the Nationals Double-A affiliate the [autotag]Harrisburg Senators[/autotag]. He has appeared in 51 games for Harrisburg and has a .274 batting average with 11 doubles, three triples, five homers, and 38 RBI. Crews is hitting 15-for-53 (.283) in June and he is on a five-game hitting streak.

Crews was the No. 2 pick in the 2023 MLB draft. He was taken one pick after his teammate [autotag]Paul Skenes[/autotag] was taken by the Pittsburgh Pirates to open the draft. Those two players helped LSU reach the mountaintop and win a National Championship for the Tigers.

The [autotag]Rochester Red Wings[/autotag] are the AAA affiliate of the Washington Nationals and they are currently 36-31 this season and have the third-best record in the International League East.
