Josh Donaldson is aware of the way to get ejected in fashion.
The third baseman introduced the drama within the sixth inning of Thursday’s Twins-White Sox sport when he launched a a 381-foot leadoff house run off Reynaldo López, breaking a 2–2 tie. In case the homer wasn’t sufficient, Donaldson despatched a message by kicking filth on house plate shortly after rounding the bases. House plate umpire Dan Bellino did not look after Donaldson’s antics and tossed him.
Bellino and Donaldson’s alternate began one pitch earlier than the 34-year-old’s house run, when Donaldson disagreed with the umpire’s strike name. Regardless of being upset, it is no state of affairs a former MVP cannot deal with.
Donaldson related on the subsequent pitch and dragged his foot as he crossed house plate. After Bellino motioned for the ejection, Donaldson determined to return to the touch the plate and kick slightly extra filth on it.
The White Sox went on to beat the Twins 4–three and develop into the primary American League group to clinch a postseason berth.
