Astros' Gomez riles up the Yankees
During the Houston Astros' 15-1 win over the Yankees in New York on Tuesday, Carlos Gomez told Joe Girardi and the Yankees dugout to "shut up," causing the benches to clear in the sixth inning.
With Houston already up 9-0, Gomez just missed a Chris Capuano pitch and disappointedly flipped his bat toward his own dugout as he flied out to center. He also said something to himself.
That was too much emotion for some of the Yankees players and Girardi, who told the "emotional" Gomez to "play the game the right way."
