Chris Bassitt criticized the league for a lack of consistency in the baseballs from outing to outing
Apr 27, 2022
Mets starting pitcher Chris Bassitt didn’t mince words when he expressed frustration and concern for the well-being of his teammates after three more New York batters were drilled by pitches in Tuesday night’s 3–0 win over the Cardinals, bringing the team’s league-leading total to 18 HBP’s through 19 games.
“They don’t care. MLB doesn’t give a damn about it. They don’t care. We’ve told them our problems with them, and they don’t care.” After Cardinals starter Jordan Hicks hit Dominic Smith in the second inning of Tuesday’s contest, Mets first baseman Pete Alonso was drilled in the helmet in the eighth, causing both benches to get a warning. It’s the second time this season that Alonso has taken a pitch to the head.
