Don’t ask why Fernando Rodney pulled a plantain out of his pants

Yeah...

Yep, you read that headline. Don’t ask. Just don’t.

Here’s veteran MLB reliever Fernando Rodney, as a member of the Dominican Republic squad at the World Baseball Classic, producing and then holstering a giant plantain from his pants during player introductions.

Is this funny? Is it just weird? Does Fernando Rodney respect the unwritten rules of baseball?

Did you know plantains can grow that large?

UPDATE: This is apparently a thing. The Rally Platano.

Ok.
