Myers Drops Ball Pham Calls Him Out | MLB News

About this episode

A tense moment turned into a social media firestorm when Reds outfielder Dane Myers dropped a game-ending fly ball in the ninth inning, costing his team a win against the Cardinals. Former Reds star Tommy Pham immediately accused Myers of intentionally dropping the ball to pad his “outs above average” stats, sparking a heated, personal feud. Myers defended himself, calling Pham’s behavior childish and reminding him that plays aren’t always as simple as they look on camera — while admitting he should’ve made the catch. Pham doubled down, calling Myers a child and accusing other players of being fed up with him, even dragging out Myers’ career WAR stats to dismiss his value. The back-and-forth became toxic, with both sides trading barbs and stats. While Myers clearly erred on the field, the public drama was entirely avoidable — and ultimately unproductive.
