Warning: Story contains coarse language

Cleveland Indians infielder Yu Chang called out those who sent him racist anti-Asian messages following Monday's loss to the Chicago White Sox.

With the Indians and White Sox tied at three in the bottom of the ninth inning, Chang struck Yasmani Grandal with a throw while trying to record an out at second base. The error allowed Nick Madrigal to score the game-winning run.

Chang is a native of Taiwan. He's played parts of three big-league seasons with the Indians. This is his first year as a first baseman.
