Cardinals announcer Jim Edmonds unnecessarily ripped Christopher Morel for a home run celebration

St. Louis Cardinals analyst and former MLB outfielder Jim Edmonds did NOT like what he saw from Chicago Cubs slugger Christopher Morel on Sunday.

But let’s be serious here: home runs are awesome and should be celebrated as such. Morel’s celebration was relatively tame compared to others, too! He tossed his bat, trotted around gleefully and that’s it.

But here’s what Edmonds said: “This kid’s celebration is a joke. I don’t mind saying it at all. I’ve never seen anything like it. I just don’t get it. You’re a .229 hitter in the big leagues and you’re running around like you’re Barry Bonds.”

Come on!
