San Francisco Giants starter Johnny Cueto had the night off Monday, but that didn't stop him from keeping active on the team's bench.
Cueto showed some serious concentration while blowing a bubble as big as his head out of gum.
Unfortunately, Cueto's bubble burst and the 30-year-old's face was attacked by the pink goop, forcing him to flee the scene.
“What’s so great about bubbles?”

While the right-hander's bubble gum game was a bit off, his pitching has been spot on since signing a six-year, $130-million contract with the Giants in the offseason. He owns a perfect 3-0 record with a 3.38 ERA.
