Nationals manager Davey Martinez took issue with the antics of Reds rookie Elly De La Cruz on Wednesday.
While otherwise complimentary of Cincinnati’s emerging star, Martinez voiced a complaint over the gesture De La Cruz made after hitting a home run in the fifth inning.
“I love the way he plays the game,” said Martinez, via Andrew Golden of The Washington Post. “I didn’t like his antics after he hit the home run. We can do without that. He’s only got two weeks in the big leagues. But he’s gonna be a good player.”
