VIDEO: Stroman, Morrison exchange chirps after at-bat
With Wrestlemania 32 underway some 1,000 miles away at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Sunday's opener between the Tampa Bay Rays and Toronto Blue Jays in St. Petersburg nearly hosted the event's undercard after a testy exchange to the end the fifth inning.
Cameras during the broadcast showed Logan Morrison barking at Marcus Stroman from the dugout after the right-hander induced a fly ball out of the Rays first baseman to end the bottom half of the fifth. Stroman, who appeared surprised at Morrison's reaction, was shown saying in response: "What the f--- are you talking about?"
Though it's unclear what triggered Morrison's reaction - other than making his third out of the game - replays did show Stroman jawing in general, and toward nobody in particular, after getting the fly out.
