After Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was hit by a pitch that seemed a little to high by Baltimore Orioles Pitcher, Craig Kimbrel, Toronto Blue Jays Manager, John Schneider took expectation and had a heated with the closer.
The second Vladdy was struck by the pitch, Schneider exited the dugout but seemed he was going to just check on to see if Guerrero Jr was hurt, but he definitely had other plans on his mind. You can see in the video that he is mouthing something to Kimbrel in a angry fashion.
«Guerrero looks at Kimbrel and shakes his head. And why is John Schneider coming out now?» one of the Orioles announcers said on the MASN television broadcast with Toronto ahead by four runs.
«Maybe he's just coming out to check on Guerrero and have a few words with Craig Kimbrel on the way.

The announcers were trying to figure out why the Blue Jays manager was so upset and were discussing what intention Kimbrel would have to intentionally hit Vlad.
«I don't know why Craig Kimbrel would throw at Vladimir Guerrero Jr. there, but obviously John Schneider is protecting his player, and he's upset about it.»
Well it is pretty obvious why he would be upset, he is the Blue Jays best and most consistent hitter and the Jays are in a terrible spot int e standings, so there is no question why he had that reaction.
Do you think it was intentionally by Craig Kimbrel?
