There is no shame here for Jason Benetti, the reporter who asked the always entertaining Detroit Tigers pitcher Andrew Chafin about his slider, some “mental issues,” and then cleaning up his pitches, all in one breath.
But Chafin’s response to that query was too good. The pitcher had this to say: “You said a whole lot right there and I couldn’t remember exactly what you said.”
There was another question about building stuff, and Chafin was even funnier: “I can build whatever you want, bud, just give me the tools.”
Check it all out below, including the full three-minute interview with Benetti:

Dan Petry spoke with Tigers reliever Andrew Chafin after his outing. Jason Benetti had a very interesting question for Chafin, which had nothing to do with baseball!#TigersST | @MGLifeOutside @BigCountry1739 pic.twitter.com/YkGVjUij5X
