David Ortiz Calls Mike Fiers a 'Snitch' For Revealing Astros Sign Stealing

David Ortiz discussed the Astros' sign-stealing scandal on Thursday, but the former Red Sox designated hitter didn't tee off on Houston's collection of hitters. Instead, Ortiz's ire was directed at A's pitcher Mike Fiers, who Ortiz referred to as a "snitch."

Fiers was a member of the Astros' 2017 World Series team, but he went on record in November 2019 to disclose Houston's sign-stealing scheme. Ortiz wasn't a fan of Fiers' decision.

“I’m mad at this guy, the pitcher that came out talking about it," Ortiz said on Thursday, according to MassLive's Christopher Smith.
