ESPN Inadvertently Gives Out Trevor Bauer's Phone Number
Reds pitcher Trevor Bauer might be getting a lot of unexpected phone calls. Bauer joined ESPN's Korean Baseball Organization broadcasts Sunday morning when the network inadvertently displayed his phone number on screen through the FaceTime graphic. Bauer took it in stride, though, tweeting out a photo of the gaffe, saying, "So ESPN has just leaked my number to truly the entire world. But in honor of this...shall we call it massive screw up...I'm doing a giveaway! I'll be giving away a pair of signed cleats and an autographed baseball over the next 48 hours. Rules are in my voicemail." As for the KBO game itself, well, the LG twins knocked off the NC Dinos 15-12.
