Aroldis Chapman might want to stop giving up home runs, unless he wants to be responsible for giving at least one New York Yankees fan a heart attack.
Joseph Solano, better known as Twitter user @JoezMcfLy, went viral Sunday when he recorded his reaction to the Yankees closer giving up a game-tying solo shot to Boston third baseman Rafael Devers in a contest the Red Sox eventually won in the 10th inning. And he was back at it again Tuesday, as Chapman gave up another home run to a rookie in the New York Mets’ top prospect Amed Rosario.
Rosario’s two-run homer put the Mets within a run of tying the Yankees, but Chapman got the next two batters to ground out, sealing the 5-4 win for the Bronx Bombers. Our friend here likely still has a bone to pick with Chapman, though, as the reliever has given up five runs in four appearances this month to give him a 10.38 ERA in August.
