Michael Kay is getting grumpy here in his old age, and I’m here for it!
The New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays squared off against each other Monday, and the latter’s outfielder Jose Siri happened to catch some heat while celebrating with his team staring at defeat. After he hit a home run, his 14th of the campaign, Siri went around the bases at a slow pace and mocked Yankees fans with hand gestures suggesting they were chirpin’.
The celebration from Siri, which came in the fifth inning with Tampa Bay being down 4-0, angered the pinstripes’ dugout. And this includes superstar captain Aaron Judge, who normally doesn’t get too emotional when it comes to these kinds of situations.

Another person who wasn’t happy about Siri’s celebration was YES Network broadcaster Michael Kay, who absolutely blasted Siri for dancing around after a home run while his team was still down by a good margin. And to make this situation even better, it was Siri’s 29th birthday! Talk about a gift!
“You’re losing! Celebrate when you’re winning,” said Kay. “They’re acting like it’s Mardi Gras in that dugout. You’re losing the game!”
