The latest incident in the Cubs’ Aroldis Chapman story had nothing to do with the pitcher, other than the fact that he had just left the mound.
Chapman pitched a perfect ninth inning in the Cubs’ 6-4 loss Sunday night, and a few minutes later, as the video board played a replay of the last out, a song called “Smack My Bitch Up” by Prodigy played over the speakers. ESPN’s Sarah Spain was at the game and tweeted about the song.
The song played during a commercial break as the Cubs waited to bat. Most at home found out about the song through Twitter, thanks to ESPN’s Sarah Spain, who was at the game.
