David Robertson normally isn’t a fiery guy but Mike Scioscia’s “bush league” actions got him riled up on Wednesday night.
The White Sox closer didn’t like how the Los Angeles Angels manager conducted himself after replay officials in New York ruled against Scioscia’s team on a play to start the ninth inning. In particular Robertson didn’t like that Scioscia returned to the field to argue the call and in doing so, blocked the plate, which Robertson said prevented him from making any warm-up tosses during the lengthy delay. Robertson allowed the game-tying run to score on anothereye-opening play later in the frame, but the White Sox eventually won in 13innings, 3-2, to close out a series sweep of the Angels.
