In a fit of frustration and rage, San Francisco Giants pitcher Carlos Rodón kicked a bat in his team's dugout in the bottom of the fifth inning of Tuesday's night loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Giants manager Gabe Kapler said he spoke with Rodón about making sure outbursts like that don't happen again.."You saw that right away that he felt remorse about it. He knows it's unacceptable. We talked about it after the game, it just can't happen. It doesn't matter if it's Thairo or anybody else, these are his teammates and if he's not able to maintain control in those situations, somebody could get hurt. He knows it, we're working on it.
That, coupled with the five earned runs Rodón allowed during his more recent start – a July 21 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers – spurred Rodón's frustrations. The Giants have also lost six consecutive games and are 8-14 in the month of July so far.
