Randal Grichuk's quiet home run celebration feels a little like a statement as BlueJays win first series of the season. More from bnicholsonsmith:
reignited the debate on baseball’s unwritten rules with an emphatic home run celebration that aggravated the Kansas City Royals. They plunked Anderson, benches cleared and the discussion about home run celebrations began anew.
Guy, are you really responding to my tweet… SMH. It wasn’t intended for anyone specific but clearly you responding shows you’re guilty of somethingIn that context, Grichuk’s quiet home run celebration seemed a little more meaningful than usual. Marcus Stroman is also on record as a supporter of bat flips – just as long as he can shimmy or pump his fist after a big strikeout, too.
Stroman also has history of his own with Anderson, who called time mid-delivery on him two summers ago only to strike out on the next pitch. The two exchanged words and benches cleared, but that’s a long time ago now. It’d be a reach to presume any bad blood lingers.
