Marcus Stroman is fired up for this final.
The Toronto Blue Jays starter has been nearly untouchable to begin Wednesday's World Baseball Classic final against Puerto Rico, allowing no hits through four while striking out three batters and walking just one.
After punching out Carlos Correa on a foul tip to end the fourth, however, Stroman appeared to have some choice words for the Puerto Rican dugout as he retreated to his own.
The altercation may have stemmed from Stroman's celebration to end the inning prior, when he nonchalantly shimmied as he walked off the mound:
