The MLB’s approach to players wearing microphones during games may need a second look, as San Francisco Giants outfielder Joc Pederson’s profanity-laced outburst on live television over the weekend has shown. The league’s recent “Mic’d Up” content is popular on social media, but Pederson’s outburst during a game against the New York Yankees was so loud that it didn’t matter if he was actually Mic’d Up. Despite Pederson’s impressive performance in the previous game, the Giants lost 0-6 on Sunday as they faced off against the Yankees. During the sixth inning, Pederson dropped an F-bomb that was loud enough to be caught on the broadcast after missing a fastball from pitcher Ron Marinaccio. This wasn’t Pederson’s first outburst, as he had a similar incident playing for Team Israel during the World Baseball Classic last month. Check out the footage below:
