Toronto Blue Jays veteran reliever Anthony Bass was unhappy with the way United Airlines staff treated his pregnant wife and two children during a recent flight, taking to social media to vent his frustrations.
Bass said his pregnant wife, Sydney Rae Bass, sister of Jessie James Decker, was forced to go on «hands and knees» to pick up popcorn dropped by their 2-year-old daughter during a flight.
«Flight attendant @united just made my 22 week pregnant wife traveling with a 5 and 2 year old on her knees to pick up my youngest daughter’s popcorn mess,» Bass tweeted. «Are you kidding me?!?!»

Bass didn’t get the reception on Twitter that he thought he would when he sent the tweet.
One Twitter user said: «Really curious who should clean up the mess your 2 year old made? As a father of three children I am responsible for them.»

«The cleaning crew they hire!» Bass replied.
Jessie James Decker got involved on her Instagram story when her sister told the camera that United gave her daughter the popcorn.
The incident appears to have been resolved, at least in Bass’s eyes.
