Hinch had enough of his shortstop Javier Baez in their Thursday night game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Baez has not had a good start to the season at the plate, but he got a good barrel on a Chris Bassitt pitch that hit off the left field wall for a double.

But Baez didn’t run too hard out of the box, thinking that he had hit the ball over the fence for his first homer of the year.

If that lack of hustle wasn’t enough, Baez later didn’t realize how many outs there were when Akil Baddoo hit a line drive to center field that was easily caught by Daulton Varsho.  CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM Javier Báez of the Tigers in the dugout during the Boston Red Sox game at Comerica Park on Thursday, April 6, 2023, in Detroit.
