To Kate Upton's chagrin, Justin Verlander is Cy Young runner-up again

The joys of motherhood should help ease Kate Upton's pain this time around. Maybe.

But there was her husband, Justin Verlander, finishing runner-up again for the American League Cy Young award Wednesday night, in a close vote with Tampa Bay's Blake Snell.

It was the third time Verlander has come in second. He won it in 2011. In the past, Upton has lashed out on social media in his defense, especially over Rick Porcello in 2016.

This time was a little more tongue in cheek.

Let's just say I won't be going to Tampa any time soon #Tampastrikesagain #CyYoung .
