George Springer was right to argue this one.
During an at-bat as his Toronto Blue Jays were on their way to a 6-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels, the outfielder got hit on his back foot by a Kenny Rosenberg pitch. But umpires said that it didn’t hit Springer.
Fine, there’s replay review, right? And when you see it, the pitch really does look like it hits his foot. Except … no, the call stayed the same.
And Springer went OFF, screaming at umpires and needing to be restrained.
“I know it hit me. I’m not going to say it didn’t hit me if it didn’t hit me, he said after, per MLB.com. “I know it hit me in the foot, but it is what it is.”
