Toronto Blue Jays, Chris Bassitt, wore a strangely numbered shirt and played a different role on Saturday after finishing the last in the team's fantasy soccer league.
During the spring scrimog of the Blue Jays against the New York Yankees, Bassitt brought its out -of -season defeat for the audience at TD Ballpark in Dunedin, Florida, to see.
As a result of his competition position, Bassitt had 4-10 on the back of his shirt instead of his usual No. 40.
However, his punishment did not stop there. Although the 36 -year -old did not launch against New York, he still played a role in the exhibition.
Before his third season with the team, Bassitt served as honorary batboy of the tiles.
Bassitt took the last -place crown from the former Blue Jays pitcher, Tim Mayza, who fulfilled the punishment when serving as the Bat Boy for three tickets in the spring training last year.

According to the Blue Jays television broadcast, the gardener and receiver Daulton Varsho is the Commissioner of the Fantasy Soccer League of the team. In the last two years, he had made the inhabitants of the Fund fulfill the punishment.
With Bassitt in Bat Duty, the Blue Jays defeated the Yankees, 6-4. They seek to take the impulse of victory while facing the red socks, the tigers and the cardinals in the next few days.
In his second campaign in six, Bassitt had 10-14 with an effectiveness of 4.16 and 168 strikeouts. He joins the team again this year for the last year of his contract.
Bassitt joined the tiles in December 2022 after a year in Chicago, six seasons with athletics and a boxes stop with the Mets.
