Kate Upton Calls Out 'Misogynist' Comments After Defending Trea Turner Call in World Series
By Michael Luciano

Like many of us, supermodel Kate Upton was left confused after a lengthy "review" process after Trea Turner of the Nats was ruled out for interfering with Brad Peacock's throw to Yuli Gurriel over at first in Game 6.
Unlike every armchair umpire on Twitter, Upton actually got the call correct, however, as Turner was ruled to have left the base path, and she let everyone know how simple a call this was while the umps were still wearing their headsets.
He wasn’t within the base path. Those who don’t know the rule you HAVE to run inside the 2 lines. Not sure why the review is taking so long... pic.twitter.com/SzUJTA4L70

Upton, who is married to Houston Astros starter Justin Verlander, was swarmed with an avalanche of misogynist Joe Randoms on Twitter who tore into Upton's perceived lack of baseball knowledge. Bear in mind, Upton was agreeing with the call on the field, meaning she shared a viewpoint with all the people who were actually in charge.
After a few hours (and after her Astros had officially registered the L), Upton had finally had enough of the wave of criticism, and lashed out at her critics on Twitter.
I LOVE talking about sports and reading all of the dumb misogynist comments. It reminds me that women need to keep fighting for equality. It’s 2019 but feels like the 1950s. #feminist

If you had 4,000 people telling you that you were dumb despite actually nailing the call in the correct manner, you'd probably do the same.
Upton may not be taking the conventionally held angle on this play, but she actually ending up being right, unlike the hundreds of dude with 15 Twitter followers that took time out of their "extremely busy" nights to go after a supermodel on Twitter.
Hope she sees this, dude.
