Royals’ Mike Moustakas wants to fight Jeff Samardzija (Video)
By Mark Carman
Kansas City Royals 3B Mike Moustakas homered off Jeff Samardzija, who then hit next batter Lorenzo Cain, and let the pitcher have a piece of his mind.
Nothing like an opening day potential brawl between the defending American League Champion Kansas City Royals and the Chicago White Sox. Jeff Samardzija is struggling in his first start in a White Sox uniform and decided to take out his frustration on innocent Lorenzo Cain after Mike Moustakas had just homered off Samardzija.
Moustakas was not pleased and decided to let Samardzija have a piece of his mind from the dug out. Now we clearly can’t hear what he is saying in the clip, but if you read the lips it seems pretty clear that he is calling him a specific word used for an insult quite frequently in sports.
A word that has been familiar during sporting events to Chicago fans lately, though instead of one of their own using the word, a Chicago athlete is having it directed at him.
Cain had an RBI single and had scored on a wild pitch in the third. Samardzija is still on the mound to start the bottom of the sixth. So far he has given up four earned. The Royals are on-top 4-0.
