Boston Reporter Calls Out Blake Snell for Slow Pitching and Gets Roasted With David Price Takes
By Jerry Trotta

Though Major League Baseball has made strides in recent years about quickening the game's renowned slow pace, there are still many prevalent dynamics that contribute to the considerably long game durations we're used to.
Some of these include hitters dawdling outside the batter's box before at-bats and between pitches, and pitchers taking their sweet time in between chucking the pill.
Boston reporter Trenni Kusnierek addressed the latter in a tweet on Sunday about Rays ace Blake Snell's alleged delay amid pitches on Sunday, and got absolutely roasted for failing to account for David Price's distinct slow pace on the mound, and the rest of the slow-paced Red Sox.
David Price has the longest Avg. time between pitches in the MLB and The Red Sox staff with the exception of Chris Sale are the MLB leading longest Avg. time between pitches. Empathy for the rest of the MLB vs Red Sox is missing here. pic.twitter.com/74P594BEqq

Not only was Trenni called out for her biased reporting, but was also labeled a clown in the process, likely undeservedly so.
But Rays fans weren't done backing last year's American League Cy Young.
David Price anyone?

Earth to David Price.
Bueller?
Bueller?
David Price is near the top of the slowest pitchers. Complain yesterday?

Don't worry, folks. Kusnierek came to her own defense by slighting the salty, butt-hurt Tampa Bay fan base, roasting them for Tropicana Field's most recent record-breaking low attendance count.
Hey touchy Tampa fans... this is a problem in ALL of baseball. Just happened to have a very stark example of the issue during today’s game. Trust me, we all know how slowly Price works. Holy defensive fan base. (Maybe you should buy tickets and support the team you seem to like?) https://t.co/tZvKYi3hQw

Talk about a comeback. After Kusnierek seemed buried, she comes back with a troll job for the ages. Though her take on Snell was a bit hypocritical, she still managed to walk away with a W here.
Nothing tops trolling a fan base for not supporting their first place ball club.
Well done, Kusnierek. Well done.
