Andrew McCutchen had the best reaction to Aroldis Chapman angrily spiking his glove on an eventual fly out

Chapman thought that was GONE.

Pirates reliever Aroldis Chapman has spent 15 years in the big leagues. He’s pitched in some of the biggest games, and he’s also given up some massive home runs. He usually knows when he has allowed a game to get away from him.

Luckily for him, Tuesday was not one of those nights.

Chapman came in to pitch the eighth inning against the Dodgers with the Pirates up a run. He gave up a hit to Shohei Ohtani and walked Will Smith. So, with one out in the inning, he was convinced that he gave up a go-ahead home run to Teoscar HernĂĄndez. And he let everyone know just how certain he was.

Chapman spiked his glove in disgust only for Jack Suwinski to make the catch at the start of the warning track. Chapman was fired up to be wrong about that one, and he got out of the inning without allowing a run. When he returned to the dugout, Andrew McCutchen had to playfully mock that glove spike.

Well played. Chapman had to expect that one.

The Pirates held on to win, 1-0.
