Clubhouse

A video of Chris Sale trashing clubhouse equipment quickly went viral after his lackluster rehab start with the Triple-A Worcester Red Sox on Wednesday night. Since has since admitted he "acted like an idiot," but he did not claim to be 100% responsible for the fallout the video has caused."That's their problem for videoing it," Sale told reporters Thursday. "If you want me to act like a normal person, treat me like a normal person. This isn't like, a normal atmosphere. If I was at Bank of America, that wouldn't fly, but this isn't Bank of America." The incident occurred after Sale allowed a run and walked five batters through 3 2/3 innings against the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Railriders. Sale said he hadn't walked five players in a long time, so his frustration got the best of him.The outburst happened in the tunnel between the team dugout and clubhouse, which Sale said he assumed was a private and safe space for him to let out his emotions. "I acted like an idiot last night and I've acted like an idiot before," he said.  » Read More
