Tony La Russa has been embarrassing himself time and time again this week thanks to his idiotic belief that his player, Yermin Mercedes, did the wrong thing by hitting a home run on a 3-0 pitch late in a blowout win over the Twins.
La Russa apologized to the Twins for the move, which was an embarrassing thing for him to do. Then he later didn’t back Mercedes after the Twins threw at him in the next game, which was also embarrassing thing for him to do and should have cost him his job.
I don’t know how any White Sox players have respect for their manager after all of that.
Former MLB pitcher CC Sabathia took some time on his podcast this week to go off on La Russa, saying he’s out of touch with the game and should be fired and that the Twins should be mad about not being good at baseball.
This rant has a ton of bad words but is 100 percent correct from start to finish:
“𝙃𝙚 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙𝙣’𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙛%*#% 𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙚𝙖𝙢.” @CC_Sabathia didn’t mince words with @RyanRuocco on Tony La Russa and the unwritten rules of baseball. TUNE IN!!! New episode available now: https://t.co/kOpnCWxzKM 🎙 pic.twitter.com/tKnJhnEUCr
