Earlier this week, Kate Upton went on a Twitter tirade to defend her man by crushing the Baseball Writers of America for not voting in Justin Verlander for the CY Young award.
He had the majority of 1st place votes and 2 writers didn't have him on their ballots?!! can you pick more out of touch people to vote?@MLB

Sorry Rick but you didn't get any 1st place votes? you didn't win. #ByeFelicia @MLB keep up with the times and fire those writers

Upton’s rant inspired New York Daily News’ Mark Feinsand to write an article titled “it’s time for her and everybody else to pipe down.”
Hey, Kate Upton … pipe down! There’s no scandal in Justin Verlander not winning the AL Cy Young https://t.co/eNZpp9Jez2

Verlander didn’t take that so well and fired back at Feinsand on Twitter.
.@FeinsandNYDN She wasn't upset about me losing. That's fine. But turning in a ballot a week b4 the season ends?! https://t.co/J59frfX79M

I don't disagree with you. I turned my MVP ballot in the day after the season. But she didn't know that when she tweeted!

Her point was they were uninformed. That they turned in their ballot a week early only validated her point. https://t.co/X2ScjTRbqP

Also if you "don't disagree" where do you get off telling anyone to "pipe down"?!? https://t.co/X2ScjTRbqP
