Yadier Molina Calls Out Jake Marisnick for Dirty Slide in Wildly NSFW Instagram
By Adam Weinrib
YIKES. It's hard to imagine any major leaguer getting this fired up over a game that doesn't involve him, but that's how important the catching fraternity is to Yadier Molina.
The Cardinals legend and future Hall of Famer was able to catch Jake Marisnick's slide into Jonathan Lucroy tonight, and safe to say he was disgusted by what he saw.
Though Marisnick apologized in the aftermath, that wasn't close to enough to prevent Molina from unleashing this string of expletives, begging Major League Baseball to further clean up their game.
Including a direct attack against those who disagree! Molina is feeling fiery on this beautiful Sunday!
Molina has a friend in the Astros clubhouse in Carlos Correa, who attempted to reason with the infuriated Cardinal.
That's not likely to do much at this juncture, though. Molina needs a night with his feet up, resting, and his eyes closed following this absolute missile. When he wakes up in the morning, we still sort of doubt he'll have gotten over it.
And yes, it's safe to say that Molina's reading the comments.
Reading AND responding.
