Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Josh Donaldson is nursing a calf injury this spring training. One can add insult to injury after Donaldson blasted a home run and didn't run the bases in a minor-league game on Friday.

Here's the video of Donaldson going deep and heading to the dugout rather than touring the bases.

A college baseball coach took offense at Donaldson's direct trip to the dugout and tweeted about it. Here's what the coach said, per CBS Sports:

This might be the worst video I have ever seen. So much disrespect to the game of baseball. Baseball gods will handle this. https://t.co/ln1X66zrXV
