I know Carl wrote about it earlier but I have to get my 2 cents in about this.
He lifted his head up and all you saw was a white towel that was stained dark red.
I mean this towel was a brand new color.
Everyone saw him dripping and you knew he was done for the day.
95 to your nose?
We simply forgot James McCann is built different.
I hate to say it, but he actually has that dog in him.
LOOK AT THAT NOSE!
Look at that jersey!
No doubt that this is the bravest and ballsiest performance we’ve seen on a baseball field this year.
God forbid he takes a foul ball directly back into his grill.
I couldn’t imagine how much pain he was in once the adrenaline wore off and the swelling started.
Literally a heroic effort today by him.
That is what legends are made of.
I know it hurt him a ton but man he got some sick pictures out of these.
The funniest part was they made him change his jersey before he went to first base.
The guy was dripping blood for 15 minutes, let the solider wear his armor to battle!
Show them what a man’s jersey looks like.
No way anyone can say McCann isn’t a veteran leader after this.
This is how you fire a team up, a struggling team that has been slumping bad.
This is how you wake up the young guys.
Just listen to McCann give his post game presser.
How can you not love that quote too, said he prides himself on toughness.
Thing looked like an “L”, it’s broken.
Just can’t believe he stayed in that game to catch.
Nothing but respect for that guy.
This is what a leader looks like, hopefully this kickstarts the team a little bit.
But this really was such a badass thing to witness.
A true warrior display put on by McCann.
Think this performance really just proves that baseball players are the best athletes out there.
No one else goes through stuff like this, baseball comes out on top again.
