Kolten Wong was called out trying to swipe second on a ball that got away from the the catcher. He immediately popped up and told the Cardinals to challenge it.
Wong then exchanged a few words with the umpire, before calling him a “f-ing piece of sh*t” when he turned his back. It turns out the f-ing p.o.s. was right, or at the very least it was too close to call, the call stood and Wong was out.
#Cardinals challenge call that Kolten Wong is out at 2B in the 1st; call stands, runner is out.
