New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson thought he had hit a home run tonight when he crushed a ball to centerfield in the second inning. Justin Verlander was the pitcher, and he left a full-count breaking ball in the middle of the zone. Donaldson was all over it. He gave it a full, healthy swing, sending the ball high and deep into the outfield. On the broadcast's angle, it looked like a home run the second it left his bat. Donaldson thought so, too. He gazed at the ball in admiration as it sailed. He also did a little bat toss.However, it came up short on the warning track. The outfielders failed to make the play. The ball bounced on the hard dirt and landed in the Yankees bullpen. It was a ground-rule double, and Donaldson trotted to second base.Talkin' Yanks@TalkinYanksJosh Donaldson crushes a ground-rule double to right-center83845Josh Donaldson crushes a ground-rule double to right-center https://t.co/Jnge9wKGDDDonaldson ended up at third base later in the same inning. That placed him in close proximity to the Houston Astros dugout, and they had some words for the Yankees' third baseman. The broadcast didn't pick up what they were saying, but it was obvious from Donaldson's reaction that they took exception to his bat flip.Talkin' Yanks@TalkinYanksAstros were chirping at Donaldson after he bat flipped a ground-rule double4164186Astros were chirping at Donaldson after he bat flipped a ground-rule double https://t.co/9Fm7TPJ5yVDonaldson didn't care one bit.
