Alou, Matt Morris, and pitching coach Righetti ejected

1st inning...wow.

 

[FairWarning]

I would guess that isn't good for my SF bet.

Ditto...

I don't mind Alou being tossed, but the other 2 hurt.

It may have been payback for Vizquel getting hit in the back last night. There was history between Vizquel and Mesa. Mesa just drilled him and the normally mild mannered Vizquel didn't look very happy but quietly went to first.

Tha is why you dont write a book trashing a player until you are retired. Besides that is Vizquel going to do to Mesa. Mesa would snap him in two.

The problem was Mesa had already said he was going to do it and the ump didn't even toss him...he gave him a warning. That was ridiculous last night. Of course someone was going to get beaned today.

I hate the fact that relievers and AL pitchers can bean guys and never have to step into the batters box and take what they have coming.

Francis just drilled Finley. Intentional or not, he should be gone following the Morris ejection. Nope! Double standard. He stays in.

This inconsistency by the umps probably pisses the players off more than being beaned. Can they do ANYTHING with any consistency?????
