I will never understand why a pitcher can laugh, yell and fist pump a strikeout. A batter gets in trouble for reacting to a homerun.

[Steven-fhrl]

no reason for the bullpens to come out they must have been so bored they just ran out to have something to do

[ikantspelgud]

Not to split hairs but, c'mon MLB, that wasn't his knee.

[jujurussell]

I didn't realize Walgreens had a MLB team...

[spire]

That wasn't the knee, that was the thigh.

[jules]

Say what you want, Bryce gets criticized because he plays the game hard and leaves it all on the field. Regardless, dude has nothing but the most potential to be great. He's 23 years old, give the kid a break. We seen a glimpse of what he's going to be in this past years NLDS. Just watch and enjoy the ride people.

0:27 "That was fucking bullshit. Fuck you. What?"

[brandongarland]

McCann is classless. He's legitimately involved in like 80% of the benches clearing I've seen.

[mrericchwang]

Am i the only one that is kinda annoyed by the misleading title? he got hit in the thigh. 

[carlsaberhagen]

0:37 "aaaah...fuck it...back to the bullpen"

[spazzy]

I swear to god if I see this damn Taco Bell ad again I'm gunna flip

[TheDayZCowboy]

I love Teheran saying "what you gonna do about it?"

[bubblediddy]

The Braves have always been hypocritical when it comes to flips, showing up pitchers, and watching your homeruns. If you can't take it, don't do it. I like old school baseball. Today most Fans love what players hate.

0:26 "Yeah, that's bullshit"

[jamesrfb]

I’m a lifelong Braves fan and Brian McCann’s act wore thin a long time ago. His whiny little temper tantrums on the field - here - and elsewhere (not letting people touch home plate after Home Runs) were, and will always be - pathetic.

[dantemachado]

Clearly most of these people commenting have never played baseball.  That was not mocking the pitcher by any means.  Watching a bomb is not mocking. He had every right to be pissed about getting hit here. Anyone who say's he is a pussy for being pissed has obviously never been thrown at.  This guy gets a lot of shit for playing hard and being passionate and I don't get it.  People say he is overrated when he is 22 years old.  Give him some time and he will be one of the greats

[goodlucktothefuture]

Guess who is still an all star. Harper.

[tigersfan]

eliminate announcers, use their salaries to put mics all over the ball field... baseball will become huge again.

[RickyBobby]

It looks so stupid when players come running all the way across the field the bullpens only to help create problems and prolong the bs.

[robertk]

stare at your homerun, and this is what happens... its baseball
