That graphic photo you see above is Giancarlo Stanton taking an 88 MPH off the face, and those white specks near his face appear to be shards of his several teeth that exploded upon impact. For some reason, whoever runs the Marlins official Instagram account decided to use that picture in an attempt to convey that it was one of the worst nights in team history.
Not great taste shown by the ballclub, and one of Stanton’s teammates publicly called them out on it:
Highlighted above is the comment that Marlins pitcher Steve Cishek left on the photo, imploring the team to take down the photo. As I’m writing this, the post is currently still up and has been for over nine hours.
