"I’m tired of Donaldson. Get him off of the team" "That was clearly NOT intentional" - New York Yankees fans frustrated when benches clear after Josh Donaldson's near HBP Comment Share New York Yankees fans are frustrated with Josh Donaldson. New York Yankees slugger Josh Donaldson was once again the center of a heated situation, this time against the Tampa Bay Rays. Donaldson has always played the game with emotions on his sleeve, so when a pitch came up and in, he reacted. After Donaldson took a few steps toward the pitcher and voiced his anger, both teams flooded the field. Both teams were issued a warning to prevent increased hostilities. Talkin' Yanks posted a video of the incident to Twitter.

An incident earlier this season between Donaldson and Tim Anderson of the Chicago White Sox led to a Donaldson suspension. New York Yankees fans now seem fed up with Donaldson and his antics, especially given his on-field performance.

Since he is not, moments like these become all the more irritating. Bustaaa14@MatthewBusta@TalkinYanks I’m tired of Donaldson. Get him off of the team. They weren’t tiring to hit him17@TalkinYanks I’m tired of Donaldson. Get him off of the team. They weren’t tiring to hit him Donaldson has not been an offensive threat this season, so it is unlikely the Tampa Bay Rays were trying to send some sort of message. The high pitch is believed to be accidental. Donaldson obviously did not see things that way. Chris@Chris68281@TalkinYanks That was clearly NOT intentional.10@TalkinYanks That was clearly NOT intentional. The New York Yankees' recent struggles have been well documented. Some fans are willing to try anything at this point to turn things around.
