Cardinals’ Pham stares down Jays’ Stroman after strikeout

Watch as Tommy Pham doesn’t seem impressed with striking out to Marcus Stroman and then seeing the pitcher hop off the mound.

Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman sure knows how to turn some heads.

In the top of the fourth inning during the Blue Jays’ spring training game against the St. Louis Cardinals, Stroman struck out centre-fielder Tommy Pham on three pitches, hopping off the mound as home plate umpire Stu Scheurwater signalled the out.

Pham took exception to the action and stared Stroman down on his slow walk back to the dugout. Check out the full video in the player at the top of this page.

It’s safe to say that Stroman is ready for the regular season.
