SF Giants analyst says MiLB pitch-tipper might be in for violent retaliation

With little to talk about after a listless San Francisco Giants effort Thursday night, the NBC Sports Bay Area postgame show turned to the hottest story in the baseball world — and one analyst offered some incredibly incendiary remarks.

After the Giants’ 3-0 loss to the Brewers, host Laura Britt brought up the saga with Minnesota Twins minor leaguer Derek Bender. On Thursday, ESPN reported that the Twins cut the catcher after he intentionally tipped pitches to opposing hitters in a pivotal game last week, all because he reportedly wanted the season to end and have his team miss the playoffs.
