How was your Tuesday night?

Amir Garrett is not having the season he wanted to. The Kansas City Royals reliever has an ERA of 5.27 and a 1.39 WHIP in what has been a rough campaign. It got worse Tuesday night, as Garrett was caught on camera throwing a drink at a Chicago White Sox fan during a game.

Following the incident going viral, Garrett responded on Twitter.

“Listen the disrespect is insane in these parks. I really wish I could go to someone’s work and run my mouth. These are grown men talking slick. How miserable do you have to be with your own life?”
