Good morning, Sports fans! It’s your buddy Davey Mac here and we have a huge Sports Report for ya! And I mean huge! Baseball, football, hockey, and hoops! But first!
Did you see the Yankees – Blue Jays game last night? If you missed it, Aaron Judge slugged two home runs…and after the second one…the Blue Jays announcers Dan Shulman and Buck Martinez essentially accused Judge of CHEATING! Take a look at this!

What the Toronto nitwit broadcasters didn’t mention was that Yankee manager Aaron Boone had just gotten kicked out of the game for arguing a low strike call on Judge. This caused a bit of a distraction within the Yankee dugout…which is what grabbed Judge’s attention.

The issue for Judge was that even after Boone’s ejection, the Yankee dugout was still mad and yelling at the umpire. But Judge wanted them to move forward and get their heads back into the game.

He then responded:
“A lot of chirping from our dugout which I really didn’t like in the situation where it’s a 6-0 game.” pic.twitter.com/MBK4GuCGPC
Seriously, Toronto announcers?! Did Dan Shulman or Buck Martinez happen to miss the fact that the guy is 6 foot 9 and slugged SIXTY-TWO home runs last year?! Or that he’s been tested for performance-enhancing drugs (like every other MLB player) multiple times and has always passed?! Hey…Blue Jays broadcasters…who know what you guys got a bad case of?! SOUR GRAPES! Judge is a beast and amazing ball-player! Take your conspiracy theory and shove it! I’m Davey Mac…that’s my two cents!
