Strong Planet Earth vibes This is a good start to a dandruff commercial - MLB Twitter left in splits after Minnesota Twins request bizarre mid-game hair check on Cleveland Guardians RHP James Karinchak

By Souvanik Seal Modified 11 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Cleveland Guardians reliever James Karinchak was forced to get his hair checked mid-game against the Minnesota Twins In one of the strangest stories of the season, Cleveland Guardians reliever James Karinchak was forced to undergo a hair check mid-game against the Minnesota Twins. As unbelievable as that may sound, Twins manager Rocci Baldelli requested that match officials check Karinchak’s hair during his team's 7-6 loss to Cleveland. The right-hander kept touching his hair before every pitch, which was the reason for Baldelli’s suspicion. Home plate umpire Ted Barnett went on to check Karinchak’s hair, and what ensued was a comedy fraught with controversy.

For now, fans are focused on the funny side. Ernesto Cedillo@ernyc3777@michael_schlact Ahhh.

Karinchak has enjoyed a fantastic 2022 season. He has a 1.63 ERA after conceding a couple of runs during his team;s 7-6 win.

So, come check.” The Guardians were far from happy about the incident, and we can understand why.

Cleveland Guardians contact MLB to seek clarification on hair check drama

Cleveland Guardians v Kansas City Royals The Cleveland Guardians have contacted MLB in reference to the hair check incident, according to Guardians beat writer Paul Hoynes. The hair check itself wasn't the problem, but the timing of it certainly was. The Guardians believed that the check should have happened between at-bats, not during. paul hoynes@hoynsieGuardians have contacted MLB over the noogie James Karinchak received from plate umpire Ted Barrett Friday night. Biggest beef is they say it shouldn't have happened during Luis Arraez's at bat, but between at-bats.31432Guardians have contacted MLB over the noogie James Karinchak received from plate umpire Ted Barrett Friday night.

"Guardians have contacted MLB over the noogie James Karinchak received from plate umpire Ted Barrett Friday night. Biggest beef is they say it shouldn't have happened during Luis Arraez's at bat, but between at-bats." - Paul Hoynes The Cleveland Guardians' frustration is thoroughly understandable. Such accusations without any foundation are downright insulting. The check confirmed that Karinchak had nothing suspicious going on after all, which made Twins manager Rocco Baldelli look really stupid. The Guardians dugout were far from pleased as the drama unfolded. Manager Terry Francona was visibly upset after Baldelli’s bizarre request. The MLB committee is expected to review the incident, but we don’t know yet if anything of substance will come out of it. For more news and updates, go to the Sportskeeda Baseball page.
