My MacBook Pro automatically sleeps while charging my iPhone

This one is very strange. I have my MacBook Pro plugged into the same power strip that I have my iPhone charger plugged into. Whenever I plug in my iPhone to charge it, or unplug the iPhone, the MacBook goes to sleep. It happens every time. What could be causing that behavior? Thanks!

Seems odd.


What happens if you plug the iPhone directly into the Mac to charge..(?)
