Tarik Skubal yells at the White Sox bench for stealing his pitches, a breakdown

breakdown is brought to you by Under

Armour. He's got two outs to go to

escape the jam. So, it's a pressure

packed situation. Fifth inning, they had

the lead. Now, it's tied. We get a

ground ball. They come home and they get

the out there. Still one more out to go.

Bases are juiced. He looks in. He's

locked in. There might be other stuff on

his mind. We're going to find out about

that later. Strike one on the ball high.

That's a nice start. Batter doesn't tap.

Maybe they're out of challenges. Right

down the middle. Strike two. He goes to

the change up low. He's going to go back

to the change up. Gets the SWING AND

MISS. YEAH. And then looks and points at

the dugout. And here's what went down.

He screams Yeah. Then he points as

you're going to [ __ ] get it. I have

the hot mic there. We can include it at

the end if you want. We were a little

undecided, but ultimately we said he

said, "You're going to [ __ ] get it."

And he points and in the dugout they're

like, "What? Me?

Yeah you.

You.

Who are you talking to?

Huh? Who are you? [ __ ] you."

Yeah. Keep doing that [ __ ] Hot mic

there as well. Loud as loud and clear.

So I'll we can put that at the end. It's

just like keep doing that [ __ ] Keep

doing what? What's he talking about?

He's not doing anything. What are you

talking about? Huh? What you? What? You

dumb.

Scooble hears that and he's like keep

doing it. Keep doing it. You no you.

Who are you talking to right now? Huh?

Sit youring

ass down.

Oh yeah. Keeping doing that. Keep doing

it,

[ __ ]

Oh no. Nobody's talking [ __ ]

Nobody's talking [ __ ]

Keep [ __ ] talking

[ __ ] crazy. So what was he doing

except saying keep doing that [ __ ]

Scooball thinks he's doing something.

That's Vassel. He's a pitcher on the

injured list for the White Socks. He's

kind of the vibes and hype guy in the

dugout. He's got a magic wand. He likes

to have fun. Now he's getting jawed at

getting cussed out by Scooble who threw

a beautiful change up and and Scooble

throws his change up with his power

fingers down the rail like a two seam. I

found that interesting. Look at that

grip. Some people throw their change up

with like the four seam grip, but this

is a two seam grip. Gets that spin down

and in. Beautiful pitch. But you know,

anyway, back to it. I found Vassel's

postgame press conference pretty

telling. The reporter asked him, "Do you

think he was mad at you about tipping

pitches or relaying signs?" And this was

his answer.

>> Yeah. Look, you know, like I I've always

said I'm going to help the team and do

everything I can to do it. So, you know,

I'm going to be with the guy in the box.

>> Was he mad at you about relaying signs?

Yeah. I mean, I've said I'm always going

to help the team and do whatever I can

to do it and be with the batter in the

box. So, okay.

>> And uh, you know, I think we've seen far

worse things before in the games. We've

seen far worse things before in the game

cuz he's doing it legally. It is legal

to do that. However, he's doing it.

Maybe he's just being too obvious. Well,

I don't know how he's doing it, but

they're pretty adamant because his

manager also came out and said like

whatever we're doing, it's above board.

>> So, if you know we're going to be that

paranoid about it, it's just part of the

game.

>> So, it seems like Vassel was giving away

location or pitches to the batters or at

least that's what Scooble thinks he was

doing. That's why he was saying, "KEEP

DOING IT. KEEP THROWING IT. And Vassel

is like, "It's legal." Whatever.

Who cares

and that's this and that's that. Bam,

bam, bing, bang, bang. It's fun. Love

when guys yell each other. School's good

for this. School keeps it between the

lines after the game. He's like,

"Whatever. It was baseball. I sh

remember he had this with Neto last year

and it was good. I like it. I like

pitchers are supposed to be fiery.

Athletes are supposed to enter like a

psycho world in between the lines and

then be normal outside the lines. At

least that's my my opinion, which isn't

worth much.

Keep doing this [ __ ]
