Can some explain that clip to me?

It's okay. I'm super racist so I'll explain.

They guy with the goofy hair pictured above hit a homer off the Dodger pitcher, who is a chino. When he got to the dugout he did the "chinky chinky chinaman" thing where you pull your eyes to the side mimicking the slant eyes of the oriental people.

I’ve worked with Philippinos who have made that gesture about each other, saying that another person also from the Philippines had (their word) “chinky” eyes. I had never heard that term before. It is from Asians that I learned the term Driving While Asian, a self deprecating term said with laughter.

I have no opinion on whether a baseball player should be punished for that conduct, which may well be justified. I think it is smart to penalize him away from affecting the World Series. I’ll agree with that.

Actually the pitcher is Japanese, although the guy called him a “chinito” which means “little Chinaman” in Spanish.
