Astros' Maybin would like to be known as Taco Hero
Taco lovers everywhere will fill their bellies on Nov. 1 thanks to Cameron Maybin, and now the Houston Astros outfielder wants to make the dish a bigger part of his life.
The 30-year-old asked his Twitter followers if he should go by Taco Hero if Major League Baseball allows players to wear nicknames on their jerseys again for Players Weekend.
If @MLB allows players to wear nicknames on jerseys again for Players Wknd, should mine be #TacoHero? Taking votes. https://t.co/egHQROnpxS

Maybin stole a base during the 11th inning of Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday, and thanks to a promotion from Taco Bell, earned free tacos for everyone.
What's better than a win in extra innings? Free @tacobell! Proud to be America's #StealABaseStealATaco guy. You ALL get free tacos on 11/1! pic.twitter.com/sRdpp1Z7Js
