Sunday was not a good day for Indiana starter Trevor Bauer in the team’s finale against the Royals.

Bauer lasted just 4.1 innings after being handed an early 3-0 lead, giving up seven runs on nine hits.

He threw 91 pitches, 53 of which were strikes.

His actions upon being pulled are not going to endure himself to the team’s coaching staff, as he fired the baseball over the center field fence when he realized he was being pulled.

Terry Francona didn’t seem all that pleased with Bauer’s temper tantrum.

Here’s the video of the incident.
