LOS ANGELES — Manny Machado has stepped into trouble again, causing at least one opponent to call him “a dirty player.”
Both benches cleared after the Los Angeles Dodgers‘ star shortstop clipped the back leg of Milwaukee first baseman Jesus Aguilar while running out his groundout Tuesday night in the 10th inning of Game 4 of the NL Championship Series.
Aguilar left his foot on the base for a moment after Machado was already out, and the star shortstop appeared to show his displeasure by bringing his left foot forward and kicking Aguilar on the back of the leg.
