The San Francisco Giants are one of the hottest teams in all of baseball at the moment.
On Tuesday, they rallied from a late 3-1 deficit to defeat the San Diego Padres and run their winning streak up to nine games.
With the game tied at three in the bottom of the ninth, Joc Pederson took a bases-loaded walk against Josh Hader to win the game and complete the comeback.
On Twitter, the Giants posted a video of the moment when Pederson drew the walk and the celebration that ensued after the team pulled off a very unique come-from-behind win.

With the win, the Giants pulled to within 2.5 games of the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NL West.
Arizona lost to the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night.
But the Giants have continued to fight from behind to pull off improbable wins.
Their streak started last week with a win over the Chicago Cubs.
They pulled off two late comebacks against the St. Louis Cardinals to secure a sweep at Busch Stadium and also managed to rally from a four-run deficit against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Giants pulled off a sweep of their hated rivals and now have a chance to secure another one against the Padres on Wednesday.
If they can manage that, they’ll run their win streak up to 10 games.
San Francisco has been an interesting team this season.
After finishing .500 last year, they weren’t expected to compete with the Dodgers and Padres.
However, they find themselves right in the thick of the postseason chase as the trade deadline approaches.
