April 16, 200323 yr Thomas should have sat on that smart ass. I hope Thomas kills the Royals tonight.
April 16, 200323 yr In all seriousness, this one of the highlights to me of last nights game. Frank gets hit on the elbow for the 2nd time by the exact same pitcher, and saids something to him about it ("that's twice") the pitcher said something back so Frank was going to take him up on his offer. Then all of his teammates were out on the field WAY before the Royals were, including the bullpen, who was being led by Esteban Loiaza. I like the stick together attitude of it all.
April 16, 200323 yr It's not worth the suspension(s) we'd have to face Absolutely. Let the fans sort it out with opposing players. Frank needs to stay out of trouble, if he bites the bait, it'll only get worse the rest of the season, with every mediocre pitcher out to provoke him.
April 16, 200323 yr That's not the angle I was really going for. I liked the fact that the team stood up for Frank, and that Frank is fired up enough to care that he got hit twice.
April 16, 200323 yr I just loved it to see Hurt show some fire!!!! He beat the Royal's with his bat and that's good enough. Too bad the pitching staff didn't respond that way too.
April 16, 200323 yr I would have loved to see a fight, sure there would have been suspensions but it would have been great.
April 16, 200323 yr It was great to see Frank picking on other people not Frank being picked on! This better show thew the Sox are not playing around!
April 16, 200323 yr Frank's not going to beat anyone up. Have you ever seen him knock over a catcher on a close play at the plate? Enough said.
April 16, 200323 yr Frank's not going to beat anyone up. Have you ever seen him knock over a catcher on a close play at the plate? Enough said. Or even slide through a second baseman on a double play...
April 17, 200323 yr Frank's not going to beat anyone up. Have you ever seen him knock over a catcher on a close play at the plate? Enough said. He ran over Mike McFarlane (sp?) once. But he normally doesn't do that. I think if a situation arises this season, we'll see the catcher fly like a raggity Andy doll.
April 17, 200323 yr I was in the first row behind the Sox bullpen. I couldn't believe how fast the guys jumped the fence and headed out to help Frank. I swear they were jumping onto the field before I even realized Thomas got hit. It was nice to see.
April 17, 200323 yr Because it looked like Frank was gonna step on Brent Mayne and squash Miguel Asencio. They cant afford any suspension right now. The Sox stick together, and I am happy they stuck up for Big Frank!

I swear they were jumping onto the field before I even realized Thomas got hit. It was nice to see. Yeah I was in the second row next to the pen and was thinking the samething. Our whole pen was empty, before their bullpen door was even open. And like I said earlier I was glad to see Loiaza leading the charge.
April 17, 200323 yr Just make sure to tell Frank if he is going to charge the mound, to make sure it is not Nolan Ryan standing in front of him.
