He didn't kick dirt at the umpire, he kicked it over the plate. Still disrespectful, but it isn't what Benetti us saying it is

He kicked dirt on the plate as he crossed it. Then he saw the ump threw him out for it and started kicking dirt everywhere.

What did Donaldson do?

Argued a 2-0 strike call (it was a ball) and Baldelli got up and fought for him...Destroyed the next pitch for a home run...on getting to home plate kicked a bunch of dirt over it and shouted something, then had to circle back to actually touch the bag. immediately got kicked out. Absolutely no place for it. 

I'm not watching the game live. Why was Donaldson ejected?

Almost got tossed arguing a terrible call, Rocco came out to cool things down.

Next pitch, an angry Donaldson hit a home run, as he was crossing home he swiped a bunch of dirt on home plate, and then swiped a bunch more after he was tossed.

This Twins team is filled with a bunch of literal garbage human beings and garbage players.  If it wasn't for the roiding they do, they'd be a cellar team.  Which is where they should be.  Fuck the Twins.  The Sox need to come back next inning and finish this bunch of losers off.

Case in point: Sano.

Ok good, I'm just viewing twitter videos... that's pretty classless of him 

Holy cow, that was one of the most unprofessional things I’ve ever seen in baseball. Turd.

Cruz says hi.

The Twins are acting like jerks. I hope they get the Yankees in the playoffs again this year.

Of course Cordero's in again

Cruz seems like a good dude. Sano seems like a horrible scumbag

Check swing strike call and barked at the ump, to the point where Baldeli came out to argue too.  Next pitch homers and decides to kick dirt on the plate as he crosses home.  Gets tossed and goes back to stop on the mound and get one more word in.

After the HR, he kicked dirt on the plate, walked passed the plate to the dugout, went to kick some more on

Thanks....after he hit a home run?...guy acting like a psychopath.

Probably doesn't want to celebrate with his teammates because they all think he is a prick too.

Seriously...like think about the kids watching these games, they look up to these professionals...

I wondered about Kepler hitting 40 homers out of nowhere last year. Same with a few other players on their team. No idea where that power came from.

I am guessing they received an "Astor-esque" tip from Marwin Gonzalez on how to improve offensively....  (ya heard it here first)

It was ridiculous no place for it in Little League, let alone MLB.  I am pretty sure my 6 year old has more common sense than that.

All that being said ReyLo definitely was in there an inning too long.  Ricky strikes again!

Oh they all High 5'd him in the dugout.

Cruz = PED

Sano = sexually assaulting a female reporter

 

I know who gets the scumbag trophy in my book between the two.

Twins reddit is absolutely giddy over Donaldson's behavior. Bunch of children. Don't even care that he got himself tossed.

You know what just let the Cubs beat them next series. 

This Twins team is just full of massive jackasses.

I'd love it too.. If Yoan got that called then smash a HR the next pitch.. F em.

 

BAD BOI

Ok boys, shut the Twins up and put them away for good.  AL Central tie breaker on the line here.
