Plenty of baseball fans were happy to see Rick Porcello named the American League Cy Young Award winner on Comedy Movies | Adult Movies OnlineWednesday. Supermodel Kate Upton was not one of them.
Porcello beat out finalists Corey Kluber and Justin Verlander, who is engaged to Upton.
It's safe to say Upton wasn't happy with the results. She called out MLB on Twitter and didn't hold back.
Hey @MLB I thought I was the only person allowed to fuck @JustinVerlander ?! What 2 writers didn't have him on their ballot?

Members of the Baseball Writer's Association of America vote on the Cy Young Award each year, and are given five slots on the ballot. A point system determines the winner, with first place votes earning seven points, second place votes earning four points, and the final three spots receiving three, two and one point, respectively.
As it turns out, Verlander had 14 first-place votes, six more than Porcello. But Porcello's whopping 18 second-place votes ended up being the difference maker. He edged out Verlander 137-132.
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 is both biased and upset, but nonetheless, the results show an interesting caveat of Cy Young voting. Verlander snatched almost half of the 30 first-place votes, but he still lost.
And the fact that he didn't appear on two ballots it's surprising too, considering Verlander's dominant numbers in 2016. Just ask his younger brother, Ben.
Are you kidding me? Most first place votes and doesn't win? #SaltyYoungerBrother Explain this.. pic.twitter.com/RpEb4PPrME

Verlander's snub will surely cause an outcry on social media, beyond that of a disgruntled fiancée and his #SaltyYoungerBrother.
