In the snub seen ‘round the world, Cal Raleigh refused to shake Mariners teammate Randy Arozarena’s hand at home plate during Team USA’s World Baseball Classic game against Mexico on Monday night.
Raleigh, representing the Americans, was playing against Arozarena, representing Mexico, and appeared to decline to shake the two-time All-Star outfielder’s hand before his at-bat—quite literally leaving Arozarena hanging. The awkward moment was caught on camera and later blew up on socials after Arozarena seemed to deliver a fiery and profane clap-back at his Seattle teammate.
