ESPN's Father's Day baseball broadcast got weird during an interview with Boston Red Sox Star Triston Casas.
Casas got in the mic to talk about his childhood with the broadcast team, but ended up sharing a strange story.
Casas spared no details when explaining a story about his father from his little league days.
In the story, Casas revealed that his dad was arrested at one of his games.
He claimed he was around six or seven years old at the time of the story.
"I was so young, I don’t really know what’s going on at this point," Casas said.

He explained that he got out on a play and started crying on his way back to the dugout.
His dad didn't like the way he reacted to the play.
"My dad, being the dad that he is, trying to teach me the lessons that he did in his own special way, came into the dugout, grabbed me by my shirt, dragged me to the line, and Looney Tunes style kicked me out onto the field,” Casas said.
"One of my best friends… his mom actually called child services on my dad and had him arrested at the field.

"I see my dad go away in the cop car, gets arrested and spends the night in jail.”
While it is a crazy story, Casas called it his "favorite memory" of his dad.
"That day my dad taught me a super-valuable lesson that not a lot people know," Casas said.
"That I had responsibility to my teammates, responsibility to the coaches that showed up that day, all the fans who showed up to the Little League game that day to go out there and give my best effort no matter how I was feeling on the bench or what I was going through that day.
"I still apply that to this day. Sometimes, I get to the bench and I want to weep and I want to cry but that’s not how baseball is."
The story was a roundabout way of explaining that his dad's lessons from decades ago still apply to his play in the major leagues.
Even though Casas' dad was a little harsh in his ways, Casas looks up to him.
"I love my dad to death," Casas said.
"I wouldn’t have this opportunity without him."

Casas hasn't been able to follow his father's mentality lately, as he is dealing with torn cartilage in his ribs.
He is hoping to be back in the lineup by July after suffering the injury on April 20.
