Bauer 'chastises' Indians' Twitter for Thanksgiving drone joke

Say what you will about Trevor Bauer's off-field hobbies, but the man does have a sense of humor.

The Cleveland Indians pitcher was presumably enjoying a quiet Thanksgiving evening at home when he noticed his team's always outrageous Twitter account using the holiday to poke fun at his infamous postseason injury - when Bauer cut his finger repairing his drone, and was forced to leave Game 3 of the ALCS after just 21 pitches.

Bauer chirped right back at the Tribe's social media crew for disrupting his Turkey Day feast, pulling no punches. Despite playing on the Indians team that lost the World Series in seven games, Bauer still jokingly reminded everyone in Cleveland of a certain lead that was blown.

On this Thanksgiving Day, we're certain that Bauer is most thankful for the fact that he still has that finger available for both droning and tweeting.
