He was in the toilet at the time

New meaning on in-game entertainment

You know how sometimes you drift off when you’re in the middle of an important task and you daydream of being somewhere far far away.

Well for baseball star Pablo Sandoval that place seems to be in the vicinity of a lady who goes by the name of ‘Diva Legacy’ on Instagram.

We’re fairly sure she wasn’t baptised as such, but clearly the Boston Red Sox man doesn’t care as he’s been found to have ‘liked’ a picture of this lady, and several others of her, while mid-game with the baseball team on Wednesday night

Rather bizarrely Sandoval went to the toilet to like this picture and more  in the middle of the seventh inning in the ultimate 5-2 loss in Atlanta

Sandoval clearly timed his toilet break well as he was due to be the sixth batter up in that frame.

Boston have decided that he can do all the instagramming he wants tonight as he’s been benched for his indiscretions.
