Kiké Hernandez was asked about his most embarrassing MLB story and he absolutely should've kept it to himself
Not only is Kiké Hernandez a fantastic baseball player, but he’s also absolutely awesome on the mic, man. He’s just always got a joke or two with him that’ll have you on the floor.
But, man. The hilarious story he shared with the Red Sox is probably one he should’ve kept to himself.
So Boston’s social media team had the brilliant idea of asking players what their most embarrassing MLB story is so far in their career. And, honestly, that’s a great idea.
Obviously, you’ll get laughs out of it. But fans will also get to know their players better on a personal level, which is always good.
So the team got to Hernandez. And, of course, you’re probably expecting a hilarious fielding story. Or maybe something funny happened in the dugout. Absolutely no one expected the story to go in the direction it did.
The morale of it is this: Don’t fart when you have Diarrhea. Take a listen if you dare.

“2020 playoffs, I had a tooth infection so I was taking some antibitiics for my infection and one of the side effects was Diarrhea. And we got a big out during a big situation during the NLDS, and I screamed F Yeah. I was DH’ing and I thought I farted. I went out to lead off the inning, struck out in 3 pitches. When I went in the dugout I immediately went to the bathroom, pulled my pants down, completely sharted.”
When he was asked to clarify if he was saying he misjudged a fart, he had a very matter-of-fact answer.
“Uh, no. What I’m saying is I [expletive] my pants. During a game. In the playoffs.”
Well, alright then, Kiké. We’re sorry you asked, too, Red Sox. Hernandez is a better person than most of us, though. Because let me tell you. If this was my story? Ain’t no way anybody would ever find out about this. I might have even found a way to erase it from my memory.
Regardless, it’s out there for Hernandez now. The internet, being the agent of chaos that it is, actually went and found the at-bat, too. It was as bad as you think.

Maybe it’s because we know the vibes now, but you can kind of tell things are a bit weird for Kiké here just looking at the way he’s walking. It’s hilarious.
Fans had so much fun with this.
