Jose Bautista's Eye Looks Fine

Rougned Odor’s punch was impressive. The fact that Jose Bautista took it standing up might be even more impressive. The way he took the media into the spin zone post-game was the true masterpiece.

“It takes a little bit of a bigger man, I guess, to knock me down,” he said.

A still shot of Bautista with one of his eyes shut gained some traction on Twitter this morning. It suggests his face looks like the face of a man who has recently been punched.

Upon further review, we can debunk this.

Another reason why we’re pretty confident Bautista’s eye isn’t all messed up? Odor’s punch landed on the jaw.
