In the top of the ninth inning, Mike Wright threw three awful pitches that were nowhere near the zone against Shohei Ohtani in the LA Angels series finale with the Chicago White Sox.
The second one in particular was even more wild, and almost smoked Ohtani. The third pitch was somehow worse and literally did.
The umpires weren’t having it. They ejected Mike Wright from the game. Mike Wright was not happy about it, but those last two pitches were literally horrible, and despite Shohei clearly trying to dodge the pitch, the third one still managed to smack Ohtani in the calf.
