About a week ago, Royals pitcher Jeremy Guthrie—who used to pitch for the Orioles, the team that Kansas City is playing in the ALCS right now—sent out a #TBT tweet that featured him in a Baltimore jersey along with the caption, "These O's Ain't Royal," an obvious reference to Chris Brown's "Loyal":
And it got a pretty good response on Twitter. So after Guthrie pitched a solid game for the Royals last night, surrendering just one run in five innings during Kansas City's 2-1 Game 3 victory over Baltimore, he unveiled a T-shirt that said—you guessed it—"These O's Ain't Royal" on the front of it during his press conference. And while some people (Royals fans!) loved it, there were others (Orioles fans!), who took to Twitter to call him out for wearing the shirt:
So a short time after Guthrie's press conference ended, he actually issued an apology on Twitter for wearing the shirt:
Did you have a problem with the shirt? Or do you think Orioles fans overreacted?
