VIDEO: Braves Star Ozzie Albies Apologizes to Media for Farting in Postgame Interview
By Parker White
Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies is one of the hottest hitters in baseball right now, but that doesn't mean he isn't human and doesn't have the same bodily functions as everyone else. Sure, everyone has passed gas before, but usually you hold that in or leave the room when people are around. Well, Ozzie didn't do that last night after Friday's game.
What was the food that was prepared in the clubhouse after the game? Inquiring minds want to know.
At least he apologized, but his face said everything. The real MVP was FOX Sports South reporter Kelsey Wingert, who kept her cool and continued to ask her question.

Kudos to everyone around him for not busting out laughing or making a big stink about it. I guess it wasn't too bad, but Albies did start waving his hand to get that stench away from his face.
