okay, just watching the boston/toronto game, enjoying a beer and ballgame. Now Ted Lilly is pitching for the jays, score tied 4-4, runner on first, 2 out. got a 2-2 count on ortiz, and lilly hits ortiz in the hand. Now ortiz stares out at the mound and yells something back at the pitcher...players converge. Now couple things come to mind. First ortiz is a village idiot if he thinks he is getting hit because of something only he and the easter bunny know of. Second he is big pussy to stand there and bark like a bitch insteading of charging the mound. if it bothered him so much why not charge the mound? does he care about a fine or susp? probably not, just a pussy.
Have noticed this trend in baseball for some hitters to stare back at the mound after they get hit. Now these are the same hitters who are practically having sex with the plate cuz they are so on top of it and where so much protection that they are like linebackers. Maybe they have visions of a young robin ventura getting the beats from the geezer nolan ryan (love that one).
now i know that i would wear protection if I was a batter, but I would also know that if its the 7th fucking inning and the game is tied and I have not been a dumbass during the game if I get hit, its just probably the pitcher trying to go inside and it gets away from him. god can't wait for hockey to start up again (if it does) so i can see some real men play. nothing like being accountable for your actions. sorry rant over...... hoping for a boston/cubs final that should have been last year!
