Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona wasn’t really interested in being shown on camera during Game 3 of the American League Championship Series, and he made sure to make it known.
In the bottom of the first inning, just before he was forced to pull starter Trevor Bauer from the game, Francona was shown on TV flipping off the camera.

No, he was not scratching an itch. There are even theories that he made the gesture toward Blue Jays manager John Gibbons, who had just made his way out of the dugout to complain to the umpires about Bauer’s hand.

Francona can do whatever he wants, to be honest. His flawless managing and decision making in key moments is why the Indians are one game away from the World Series.
