Kyle McCann was sitting on the bench for the Oakland A’s when he watched the home plate umpire — D.J. Rayburn — call strike three on his teammate Zack Gelof, who wasn’t happy with the call (it might have been a bit low but was on the border).
So McCann started yelling something at the ump, who tossed the player (note that this game was played at a not-very-crowded Oakland Colliseum). McCann did a “Who? Me?” and then headed back to the clubhouse. But as he did so, he threw up the horns AKA the rock and roll fingers.
That’s the way to walk off after all that.
