Former Kansas City Royals teammates Billy Butler and Danny Valencia don’t seem too fond of each other after both moved on to Oakland. According to the San Francisco Chronicle beat writer Susan Slusser, Butler and Valencia scuffled in the A’s clubhouse on Friday.
Billy Butler has subsequently missed games on Saturday and Sunday, but Oakland manager Bob Melvin attributed his absence to nausea and vomiting.
When asked about the incident after the A’s loss to the White Sox on Sunday, Valencia refused to comment.
