Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: Yasiel Puig has upset some people.
This time, it’s some players on the New York Mets, who were angry at Puig for running the bases “too slowly” after hitting a home run.
Yasiel Puig’s home run staredown and trot took 32.1 seconds, second-longest in MLB this year. Looked like Wilmer Flores said something. pic.twitter.com/exN5LqpPIz

Puig is gonna catch one in the back next time up. Admires it, and then basically walks around the bases. pic.twitter.com/WrzfOjeocP

The Los Angeles Dodgers star and Mets infielder Wilmer Flores also had an exchange of words following Puig’s actions.
Wilmer Flores was upset that Yasiel Puig admired his homer. “I told him to run the bases.” What did Puig say? “F—- you.”
