During Monday night’s Tigers-Indians game, first baseman Miguel Cabrera was caught on camera giving Jason Kipnis a cup check.
Not exactly what the cameraman expected to see when he checked in on the runner at first. Then again you never really know what to expect during a baseball game.
What an interesting way to greet baserunners. From the looks of Kipnis’ reaction it appears as if he wasn’t wearing a cup.
The rest of the league has now been warned. Wear your cup against the Tigers or protect yourself in other ways from a potential Miggy cup check.
Hey @tigers, what are you teaching @MiguelCabrera? @TheJK_Kid pic.twitter.com/F2AuGUHMy1
