Kyle Schwarber's Reaction To Amir Garrett Striking Him Out Last Night The LAMEST Thing Of All Time

So last night the Cubs dropped their 2nd game in a row to the hapless Cincinnati Reds, and in the process Kyle Schwarber raised his fist and yelled at every single cloud in the sky:

Now before we talk about how completely and totally lame it was, let’s rewind it back like 6-7 weeks to a random Reds vs. Pirates series.

Amir Garrett literally tried to fight the entire Pittsburgh roster.  Full video below, and it is AWESOME:

Now 90+% of the time, baseball fights STINK.  But this one was awesome.  1 on 25, coaches vs. coaches, haymakers, players not even on the team anymore trying to stick up for their teammates.  It had it all.  Awesome brawl.

Not exactly the guy I’d be running my mouth to, especially when he did literally nothing wrong other than get amped up at recording a big strike out, which we’ll talk about next.

Garrett is obviously emotional.  A little unstable.  Psychopath.  Fearless.  But let’s focus on the operating word “emotional” first and foremost.  This was Garrett’s reaction to punching out Schwarber late in last night’s game:

Who in their right mind would have ANY issue with this reaction?  He didn’t taunt the dugout.  He didn’t taunt Schwarber.  All he did was unleash emotion because he just ended the inning with one of the very hottest hitters in baseball at the plate.

So…. why is Schwarber telling him to “get the fuck back to the dugout”?

Love how Garrett laughed in his face too by how he ran off the field too:

But ya know what?  I can’t even really blame Schwarber at the same time.  Him and Castellanos have put the Cubs’ offense on their backs the second half, but the standings still look like this:

In the middle of their championship window no less!  So I get it.  Schwarber’s frustrated.  He’s pissed.  He’s venting.  It just so happened he took all of that frustration out on Garrett which in turn made him look like the lamest human in the history of lame humans.

Oh well.  That’s the great thing about baseball.  Schwarber can dust himself off, come back today and maybe pimp a dinger should he hit one.  That said, my second favorite team is looking great right now.  And by second favorite team I mean the Cards and Pirates for the next 10 games.  Let’s play spoiler fellas!
