Without a doubt Rhys Hoskins has been the main ‘enemy’ of the New York Mets in the first two games of the MLB season in the Big Apple.
Hoskins authored a dangerous sweep off Jeff Mcneil at second base in Friday’s game. This Saturday he produced again with the bat, driving in 4 runs with 4 hits including 1 home run.
But in his fourth at-bat of the day, Mets right-hander Yohan Ramírez proceeded differently, throwing the first pitch to Hoskins well behind the hitter.
Hoskins immediately put his hands on his waist and started looking at Ramirez. The players in both caves threatened to jump onto the field, but the benches did not empty, as happened the day before.
The plate umpire, Lance Barrett, ended up ejecting Ramírez, who was replaced by Puerto Rican Jorge López. Hoskins walked that at-bat, after taking four consecutive bad pitches.
Notably, Mets fans cheered Ramirez as he headed to the dugout after being ejected, trying to let him know that they were happy that they were trying to give Hoskins what he deserved, who is already aware that it’s time to try to end the friction with said team.
It is very likely that Ramírez will be fined by the MLB after this action, despite the fact that the baseball world recognizes that it was not something that was born to the Dominican right-hander, on the contrary, it was an order that originated from the cave due to his heights. hands.
