Chicago Cubs broadcast leaves viewers stunned as Justin Turner is seen engaging in lewd celebration
Chicago Cubs fans were stunned on Thursday night as their team's home broadcast showed Justin Turner engaging in an extremely lewd celebration.
Turner, 40, did not appear in the game for Chicago but was dubbed the 'Fan of the Game' by Marquee Sports Network, as they showed a clip of him celebrating with outfielder Seiya Suzuki.
But the veteran Turner's cheers were from from typical, as the infielder was actually seen wearing a pair of fake testicles as he jumped up and down.
The 2020 World Series champion smiled wide as he pumped his arms in the air while wearing the bizarre item, and fans couldn't believe that Marquee aired the NSFW moment.
'I was like is the camera guy blind or did he do it on purpose,' one fan asked on X, including a laughing-crying emoji in their post.
'Broadcast got some balls to show that,' a second joked.
Suzuki rounds the bases after hitting a home run in the bottom of the sixth inning
'For most men, it's the simple things,' a third added.
And a fourth said: 'Did we just win it all?'
According to the New York Post, broadcasters Boog Sciambi and Jim Deshaies went silent for about 30 seconds afterwards as they seemingly realized what had happened on the broadcast.
Nonetheless, it was a positive night for the Cubs as they beat the Pirates 3-2 to move to 42-27 on the year.
Turner, in his 17th MLB season, has played a reserve role for the red-hot Cubs this season, only appearing in 38 games.
In 110 plate appearances, he's hitting .213 with 11 RBIs and one home run.
The Cubs have three more games against Pittsburgh this weekend before they'll welcome the Brewers to town.
