Manny Literally Being Manny and Utley

The Brewers see Manny Machado as a dirty player who doesn’t hustle.

Dodgers shortstop Manny Machado was called out for being a “dirty player” and not “playing all that hard” by the Milwaukee Brewers after clipping the back leg of Brewers first baseman Jesus Aguilar while running out a groundout in the 10th inning of Game 4 of the National League Championship Series on Tuesday night.

Both benches cleared after the incident. Aguilar’s right foot was on first base and it appeared as if Machado intentionally kicked it with his left foot out of frustration after being called out.

“It was a dirty play by a dirty player,” Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich said.

When Brewers manager Craig Counsell was asked if Machado was going beyond the grounds of playing hard, he said, “I don’t think he’s playing all that hard.”

He’s a Dodgers dream, a combination of Manny Ramirez and Chase Utley!
