Donald Trump Rips Dodgers In Out-Of-Nowhere World Series Game 4 Take

Raise your hand if you expected United States President Donald Trump to weigh in on the World Series.

That’s what we thought.

Trump apparently watched the Red Sox beat the Dodgers on Saturday night to take a 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. And, well, let’s just say POTUS wasn’t impressed with Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, who lifted his dominant starter, Rich Hill, in the seventh inning.

Check out this tweet:

Watching the Dodgers/Red Sox final innings. It is amazing how a manager takes out a pitcher who is loose & dominating through almost 7 innings, Rich Hill of Dodgers, and brings in nervous reliever(s) who get shellacked. 4 run lead gone. Managers do it all the time, big mistake!

Make of that what you will.

Both Roberts and Red Sox manager Alex Cora reacted to Trump’s tweet after the game. Here’s what they had to say, per the Boston Herald’s Jason Mastrodonato:

Dave Roberts on Trump’s tweet: “The president said that? I’m happy he was tuning in and watching the game. I don’t know how many Dodgers games he’s watched. I don’t think he was privy to the conversation. That’s one man’s opinion.”

Cora looked disgusted by mention of Trump’s tweet, comes to Dave Roberts’ defense: “Dave Roberts is a good manager.”
