KC Royals pitchers called out for strip club behavior
By Cory Buck
A couple of pitchers from the Kansas City Royals decided to hit a strip club in Minnesota and be real cheap about it. Unfortunately for them, it appears they chose the wrong strip club in which to romp and withhold their cash in the hopes of some *ahem* free services.

Deadspin reports that Isabel Kennedy, a writer and stripper based in Minneapolis, lambasted pitchers Bruce Chen and Yordano Ventura for their conduct. The tweets quoted can be found in the report.
A pretty scathing review from Kennedy that once again exposes some athletes making lots of money as being cheapskates. This is nothing new from the Twitterverse as we’ve seen everything from No Tippin Pippen and now this.
As long as there is social media, athletes need to understand that everything they do — even in the gloomy lights of a strip club — is fodder for the public eye.
