Guardians announcer rips Javier Baez after Tigers shortstop took a hit-by-pitch personally

We’ve been over this a million times: Javier Baez swings at a lot of pitches that are out of the strike zone, which is a meme that never dies.

It’s gotten quite rough, to the point where he’s hitting .182 right now, which is all kinds of bad for a player who once had a .290/34/111 season.

So when Baez got hit in the backside by a Nick Sandlin pitch and started walking toward the hurler, the Guardians announcer remarked, “Look, Javy. You’re hitting WAY under .200. Nobody’s hitting you on purpose.”

Boom, roasted. But he’s right! Can’t argue with that.
