BREAKING: Arizona Diamondbacks Suspended Alek Thomas for entire season due to…….Diamondbacks’ Alek Thomas gets hit with Karma in Game 5 loss
The Arizona Diamondbacks committed a brutal error in Game 5 of the World Series on Thursday night, and many felt the player who was responsible had it coming.
The Diamondbacks trailed 1-0 going into the ninth inning before they completely melted down. Closer Paul Sewald allowed three straight hits to begin the inning. The third single was misplayed by center fielder Alek Thomas, allowing two Rangers to score to make it 3-0. Marcus Semien blasted a 2-run home run three batters later, and the rest was history.
Was that Karma? If you remember, the Diamondbacks pulled a disrespectful move after they beat the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 7 of the NLCS.
During the celebration, a D-Backs player brought out a National League champions flag and planted it on the field at Citizens Bank Park. That player was Thomas. You can see the video here.
Thomas said after Thursday night’s game that he could have done a better job of “calming down” and getting in front of the ball.
