Donaldson burns college coach for criticism

When video circulated of Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Josh Donaldson hitting a spring training home run and casually walking to the dugout, not all were impressed.

Sean Allen, an assistant baseball coach at the University of Texas, decided to take to Twitter to chide the former MVP for his lack of hustle, Mike Axisa of CBS Sports reports.

"This might be the worst video I have ever seen. So much disrespect to the game of baseball. Baseball gods will handle this," Allen said in a since-deleted Tweet.

He was apparently unaware that Donaldson has not yet been cleared to run the bases.

"(N)ot allowed to run right now Sean. Please only condemn your players to the Baseball Gods. I bet you love to give the bunt sign," Donaldson replied.

For his part, Allen retracted his statement to Donaldson, saying, "glad to hear this. I stand corrected and apologize."

Not a fan of small ball tactics, Donaldson will look to bring his home run prowess to big league camp during the weekend's games. He is still expected to be available for opening day.
