He’d record just one out before getting pulled for allowing seven runs after walking three batters and letting up three hits (including a home run). After the game, McCullers reportedly had to deal with death threats to him and his children from critics all over the world.

The Astros pitcher says he received online death threats directed at his children after his start Saturday against the Reds.

The Astros later said that the Houston Police Department and MLB security had been alerted about the threats made to Lance McCullers Jr. and his kids.
