LOL!!!

the more they analyze the drama the funnier it gets lol hilarious

Whenever Ozzie is involved it's always over analyzed....and always hysterical

At the start of the clip, Harper holds the bat up to his crotch and points it at Ozzie, like he's pointing his wang at him. Not sure if it was intentional, probably was, and I think that's what made Ozzie so mad.

I. LOVE. BASEBALL.

Good ole Ozzie....

Never thought I'd be at a point where I'd be more on Harper's side of something. Kind of makes me feel weird. He's certainly shedding his doochy label at a decent rate.

Ozzie's under enough strain as it is. For a macho guy like him, it's gotta be pretty darn tough managing in baseball's first ever Out & Proud stadium (I'm not talking about the fans. The stadium).

Ghea stadium?

You said it, I didn't. 80K posts . . . *poof*

But did you get it? It's like Shea but not?

Yeah, it's good. In Cuba, they have Che Stadium. I think we need mandatory sensitivity training: <http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2496753

Mariotti is a first class citizen that didn't deserve that.

Pish. Send him back to Sicily, I say.

Actually I would take Ozzie's side of this particular argument. I was beginning to think Harper had grown up a little.

It appeared to me that Harper was showing Guillen the bat so he could see that it complied with the rules. But I have not read any of the follow-up stories. Too much like following the NBA.

I don't think that was the case, because the bat didn't come close to complying, the pine tar was definitely too high on the bat. Take a look at Prado's bats sometime, he pushes it and I'm surprised nobody has said anything about it. Personally, I can't understand why the heck guys even use pine tar. I didn't even use batting gloves the first half of my playing career, and later when I did start using them, the grip I got was fantastic. That pine tar really makes a mess, and to me isn't necessary at all.

What is out of line is that <dumbass mustache harper has. Cant he just play baseball and quit trying to draw attention to himself?

That's a clown mustache, bro.

"I don't think that was the case, because the bat didn't come close to complying, the pine tar was definitely too high on the bat."

Then maybe he was taunting Guillen and that's why Guillen exploded.
