Cole Tucker can do it all — at least according to his wife Vanessa Hudgens!

On June 1, the High School Musical alum, 35, reshared a video on her Instagram Stories of her husband, a shortstop and outfielder for the Los Angeles Angels, making a star play during his first-ever appearance as a pitcher for the team.

As Tucker, 27, and the Angels took on the Seattle Mariners, the six-season MLB player showed his versatility by stepping in as pitcher in the eighth inning.

Although the Angels ultimately lost, Tucker did not give up a single run, according to Sports Illustrated.

Plus, in the clip of Tucker’s pitching debut that Hudgens shared to her Instagram Stories, the shortstop-turned-pitcher made a leaping stop while still on the mound, and threw the ball to first for an out.

Praising his performance on the field, the actress captioned the video, “I mean find urself a man who does it all.”

Hudgens is currently expecting her first baby with Tucker. The Princess Switch star revealed her happy news by debuting her baby bump on the Oscars red carpet in March. The couple was first linked in November 2020, announced their engagement in February 2023 and tied the knot in December 2023.

Hudgens — who was just crowned victor of The Masked Singer

> — has previously described her MLB player husband as “just kind of perfect for me.”

Speaking with Entertainment Tonight in April 2021, the Disney alum said, "I am happy. I really am. I think that it's also so important to stay grateful for everything that you have in life. I've been making that a priority, and I feel like it's just been making magic happen all the more.”

Plus, the pro athlete previously revealed that his hair is inspired by Chad Danforth, Corbin Bleu's character (also a baseball player!) in the iconic Disney flick. “When I was in fourth grade, I was like, ‘Man, I am going to grow out my hair. I’m going to look like Corbin Bleu and it’s going to be the coolest thing ever,' " he told The Athletic in March 2020.

“I did it and I’m still doing it,” he continued. “I sound like such a nerd right now, but that’s really what happened. It kind of became my thing.”
