There’s no MLB conspiracy against the Toronto Blue Jays — and Jose Bautista‘s suggestion that the ALCS is rigged against his team is “silly” … so says MLB on FOX’s play-by-play guy Joe Buck.
Quick background … Bautista said there are “circumstances” working against the Blue Jays — and it doesn’t take a brain surgeon to know he’s saying the home plate umpires are favoring the Cleveland Indians.
So, how does Buck feel about the situation? Let’s just say he doesn’t agree …
“Why would it would be rigged? Sounds more Trump-esque,” Buck said.
“Silly. Totally silly.”
There’s more … Buck also talks about Adrian Gonzalez’s Trump Hotel protest and why he thinks the Dodgers, Cubs series will go all the way to Game 7.
