By the looks of it, Charlie Blackmon tried to see how far he could drive his Jeep with the gas light on this afternoon. It did not work out so well.

From what it looks like, Charlie Blackmon ran out of gas while on the road, leaving him to use a spare gas can to give his Jeep Cherokee enough to make it to the next gas station. While out of gas, Charlie Blackmon, likely, phoned DJ LeMahieu to give him some backup this afternoon. Even though Charlie Blackmon ran out of gas, he did not miss a beat, having his protein shake on top of his car.

Although Charlie Blackmon might run out of gas on the road, he hopes to continue his impressive baserunning skils in the upcoming season. Charlie Blackmon comes off of a career-year on the basepaths, stealing 43 bags. Over the past two seasons, Charlie Blackmon stole 71 bases, proving that he has more gas in his legs than his car had this morning.
