Earlier this month during a three-game series at Oracle Park, the historic rivalry between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants was seemingly rekindled when Max Muncy sent a Madison Bumgarner fastball into McCovey Cove for a solo home run.
The 28-year-old gazed at his admirable blast that traveled an estimated 426 feet and then dropped his bat, which drew the ire of Bumgarner. The tempestuous left-hander immediately confronted Muncy on the basepaths, and the two exchanged words with each other.
When asked of their war of words after the game, Muncy revealed that he told Bumgarner to “go get the ball out of the ocean” if he took exception to him watching the drive.
