VIDEO: Travis d'Arnaud Reminds Us All to Wear a Cup and Gets Nailed Right in the Crotch vs Blue Jays
By Michael Luciano
Tampa Bay Rays catcher Travis d'Arnaud can never have his toughness questioned ever again, as he just lived through possibly the most painful experience that a man could ever have the displeasure of going through. In a game against the Toronto Blue Jays, d'Arnaud had trouble handling an errant Diego Castillo slider. The breaking ball bounced up after hitting the ground and nailed d'Arnaud right in the groin.
Apologies to all of our male readers, who probably felt that one sitting at home.
He did ultimately leave the game in the top of the ninth inning, citing neck problems. However, anyone who watch that video might be able to infer that the real reason he was taken out of that game might be to lewd to print.
If you happen to be down in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area and you see d'Arnaud at a bar, go buy him a drink, because he has been through quite the rough patch.
