The Toronto Blue Jays and Pittsburgh Pirates got into an altercation on Monday night stemming from a Tommy Pham walk in the seventh inning.
Pirates outfielder Tommy Pham may have wanted a piece of Blue Jays catcher Tyler Heineman on Monday night in Pittsburgh, but his beef with the opposition didn’t stop there.
The pitch in question was this 2-0 sinker from Blue Jays lefty Brendon Little. According to TruMedia's calculations, that pitch had a 58.9% called strike probability -- that's based on empirical data, and not whether or not it should be called a strike based on the rulebook or any given umpire's judgment.
Tommy Pham was on one Monday night. During the Pittsburgh Pirates' 5-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays, the veteran outfielder set off a benches-clearing fracas, then decided to attack fans on social media.
Tommy Pham has quickly become public enemy number one amongst Toronto Blue Jays fans, and perhaps even the clubhouse.
