Summary
A fastball clocks in at 95.5 mph and smashes Orioles’ Blaze Alexander’s hand—breaking it—during a heated game against the Royals. Dugouts cleared, tempers flared, but no punches were thrown. Royals’ Vinnie Pasquantino questioned the pitch’s intent, sparking Alexander’s social media rebuttal calling it a “weird take.” Pitcher Lucas Erceg later apologized, but the tension lingers. Alexander, a key contributor for Baltimore, now faces a major setback as the team heads into the All-Star break.
