AJ suspended 1 game

No, it isn't. It happens all the time after people strike out. I saw AJ do it about a week ago and he wasn't tossed then. So you get a clue. I guess I shouldn't have been kidding.

 

I don't know why you are trying to make this personal. Its pretty childish of you really. I was obviously kidding in my little flame.

Haha, they comment on stuff as they walk away and umps sometimes let it go if they keep moving and it's not too bad. Like I said, you don't know what he said exactly (it had to be more than a few questionable words to get him tossed), so to say he shouldn't have been ejected for mouthing AFTER slamming his bat at frustration to the ump is wrong. That's why I said it's an automatic cya, because it is.

I see what you are saying, but I still don't think its automatic. There is always discretion and without knowing what he said, its impossible to say its automatic. I was ten yards away and was kind of baffled by the whole situation at the time. Maybe I am biased, but I still think most people would have gotten away with it. Throwing the helmet was stupid, I guess.

At this point we just agree to disagree. I think I've seen cases of nearly the same thing happening without the same consequences. There is no use arguing.

i'm twisted on this issue. AJ shows emotion, which our team needs but he does some stupid things like call out Ozzie and Toby Hall through the media. since buehrle and aj got into it, we've sucked goat balls.

 

When did they get into it and about what??
