You created activity! Woo! I actually just replied to the last thing you said. No need to respond, really. I didn't say anything important. <br /><br />RWH, that was my thought. Why there? The fact he said the pitch could have gone anywhere is kinda scary. As in, he had no control.

Was there any reason for that pitch to be thrown where it was? This is after all a world class pitcher known for locating pitches with great accuracy. <br />That entire situation dies down immediately if Beckett even shows an ounce of contrition. Instead he wanted to be macho and refused to just hold up a hand and mouth, "Sorry. My bad."RWHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09246897906768866514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-22487818936118173902009-04-16T12:01:00.000-04:002009-04-16T12:01:00.000-04:00Amen. and not just because it is a Red Sox that y...Amen. and not just because it is a Red Sox that you started the discussion. Pitching inside and installing fear in a batter is part of the game it has been around for a long time. Do you thin kNolan Ryan or Bob Gibson would have been the pitchers they were if the batter didn't have it in th back of his mind that he may get hit. I can only think of a small handful of current pitchers that batters have to think about the brushback pitch. Lets name them and you fill in anyone I miss:<br /><br />Randy Johnson<br />Beckett<br />Perdo (if he signs)<br />Papelbon<br />Joba<br />Zambrano<br /><br />I know there may be one or two more but not many. That is crap. Pitchers need to pitch inside and give that batter one more thing to worry about.<br /><br />finished -(gets off of soapbox)AdamEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107347958456472504noreply@blogger.com
