Next game they play, have the Royals pitcher put one between Quentin's shoulder blades.

Shit, I'd go as far as having someone planting right at Ozzie himself.

I really don't care. A lot of armchair QB'ing by people who did not watch the game. Dude comes into a the 2nd blowout in a row, and throws three straight pitches at a guy's head. I don't blame Olivo at all.
Heck, Hawk and DJ are the biggest homers on the planet, and they said they didn't blame Olivo either. |

There was no question he order the bean today. Bases loaded, new pitcher, down by 10, Olivo spun out of the first one, plunked by the second. I laughed my ass off when Grienke threw the heat right into Swisher, dude couldn't stand up for 3 minutes let along charge the mound. **** ozzie and the mlb raiders.

Funny, I always thought Major League Baseball's best umpire was Don Denkinger?!??

I also find it ironic that Guillen has a problem with Teahen bunting up 6-0. |

after grienke hit swisher i was literally lawl-ing... i just started imagining grienke in the dug out after the brawl mumbling to himself in that awkward voice of his about how he was going to plunk someone. he waited until they got one person up in the pen, then dialed it up. hilarious

Ozzie doesn't realize that a 6 run lead by the Royals is a 2 run lead by any other team. The bunt attempt was justified. Its funny how his dumb ass says its ridiculous to bring in Carrasco to hit Olivo, but then admits he brought Carrasco in earlier in the year to intentionally hit Butler. This guys a fool, **** ozzie.

Doesn't that punch a bit of a hole in Passan's argument that Olivo wasn't hit on purpose?

Anyone who saw Tony Conigliaro's face after being hit would never condone the intentional bean ball. You could see the impression of the balls stitches in his badly swollen face. Anybody got a pic of that?

Not only does it make Ozzie look stupid, this doesn't exactly reflect well on Jeff Passan.

it was obvious what happened. royals were up big, were bunting, and guillen didn't like it. there's no way someone gets 3 pitches in a row up by their chin on accident.
the only strange thing about that is that carassco needed 3 pitches to actually hit him. i wonder if zack retaliated on orders or on his own. that pitch he threw was not something that slipped or whatever. it was a straight fastball right at the guy's hip. guillen is stupid, anyway. they have a lot to lose right now for getting into a pissing match with a last place team. people can get hurt or suspended or whatever. what happens if he loses a key player over this? what a moron. |
