MLB Fans Ripped Pirates Pitcher for His Childish Move After Giving Up Home Run

The San Diego Padres beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-1, on Tuesday night in a game that had a very tense moment in the bottom of the seventh that almost led to a bench-clearing brawl. 

It started with Pirates pitcher Angel Perdomo giving up a solo home run to Juan Soto. Perdomo didn’t seem to like how much Soto celebrated after hitting that blast so he drilled the next batter, Manny Machado, in the back with a 98-mph fastball on the very first pitch of the at-bat.

Machado was understandably upset and had words for Perdomo, who was ejected from the game.

This was a pretty weak move by the pitcher:
