for those that don't remember--so much going on here:

-aj slamming his hand on home plate then tryin to bowl over barrett AGAIN
-the punch
-podsednik trying to fight barrett, which was more cute than anything
-the all out melee
-aj's buttcut which is the real crime that was being committed here

Who took the cut behind home plate at the cubs player (#17?) and who was the Cubs player? hilarious. Pierzynski probably could have just slid to the outside part of the plate and been safe. But...why do that when you can run over someone? Barrett....what a baby though.

Edit: LOL, 17 is Mabry.

Then Ozuna pinch runs, steals 2nd base and Crede hits a GW double. All with 2 outs, bottom of the 9th.

Thanks for bringing up the memory of Michael [expletive] Barrett...I was hoping to forget all about him...and since you brought up baseball players that I hate, the only other name that triggers my baseball rage is Brandon [expletive] Backe.

[expletive] both of them in the [expletive] with a gignormous [expletive]

Yeah, that ALCS game was the first thing I thought of.

I vaguely remember a story about AJ punching a coach in the nuts or something during his one horrible year with the Giants.

Exactly why did AJ get fined? He wasn't trying to bowl over Barrett again. You can tell he was attempting to go around after he got up with a bit too much momentum going Barrett's way. That's how I see it, at least. I don't like the guy, either.

Someone refresh my memory...why do we hate Barrett?

A microcosm of Pierzynski's approach was mentioned by more than one of the backstop's former teammates, who revealed his propensity to spend a significant amount of time looking at his phone while at his locker during games. In one instance, after a particularly rough outing in which the starting pitcher had been pulled early in the game, Pierzynski could be found staring at his phone while the pitcher gave off the appearance of being an emotional wreck just a few feet away. That incident paved the way for at least one complaint to management from a teammate.

I'm totally shocked that the Red Sox would anonymously trash someone on the way out the door and also place all of the blame on them for their collective failures. That's never happened before.
