Fan yells ‘You suck’ at Kris Bryant after his third strikeout

One person in attendance Friday at Wrigley Field for Kris Bryant’s first MLB game — we hesitate to call this dude a Chicago Cubs fan — had already grown sour of Bryant by the fifth inning.

Bryant notched his third strikeout of the game, waving at a cutter from James Shields. The Cubs had runners at second and third base, so the disappointment was two-fold. Bryant, the young slugger entering the game with all the hype, just couldn’t figure out Shields and that prompted heckling from at least one fan who yelled “You suck” at Bryant.

Judgment comes swiftly in The “Friendly” Confines.

Hear that? Loud enough that the TV audience could make it out clearly. That, of course, was probably the goal of the heckler — get some attention for himself on Kris Bryant day. Nothing we haven’t seen before from a sports fan.

Despite the less-than-thrilling start to Bryant’s career, people on the North Side were still quite happy to see Bryant in a Chicago uniform finally. He got plenty of cheers. One day isn’t going to define Bryant’s tenure with the Cubs, just like one fan yelling “You suck” doesn’t reflect what all Cubs fans think of their top prospect.
