Video: Padres' Manny Machado Rips MLB Network Analysts in Instagram Rant

San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado didn't hold back when discussing MLB Network commentators Dan Plesac and Eric Byrnes on Instagram Live on Tuesday.

As Chris Bumbaca of USA Today noted, Machado took issue with the commentators' decision to defend Houston Astros center fielder Jake Marinsick after he was hit by a pitch during Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels.

The pitch from Angels pitcher Noe Ramirez appeared to be retaliatory after Marisnick collided with Los Angeles catcher Jonathan Lucroy during a game on July 7.
