The infamous Drake Curse may have hit the Toronto Blue Jays in a new way.
Drake, a Toronto native and Blue Jays fan, had plenty of trash talk for the Dodgers during the World Series, particularly when his team took a 3-2 lead with a 6-1 win in Game 5. The rapper’s social media activity did not go unnoticed by Dodger players.
Drake gave the Dodgers bulletin-board material
Dodgers shortstop Miguel Rojas told TMZ Sports that Drake’s shots at Shohei Ohtani in particular got a reaction in the clubhouse.
“I tried to stay humble, don’t talk too much, but that doesn’t go unnoticed,” Rojas said. “When you do something like that, when you disrespect the best player in the game, not understanding the quality of the person and what the guy has done for baseball, it’s really hard to jump into conclusions at that time.
We lose Game [5], (Trey) Yesavage threw a really good game, and we’re not doing anything other than praising the guy. He threw the ball really well, pitched an amazing game, he’s a different pitcher, he’s a unicorn on the pitching side. Then all of a sudden we’ve got this guy right here. We don’t know who he is, but you don’t have to do that, man.”
