how the shite wasn't he ejected after that?


As was mentioned before, it is a legal play...whether he went to the face or not.

(Joe) Brinkman said Belle's hard hit on Vina in the eighth was legal, "but it's professional courtesy not to do that."

+100000. I'm sure when Metheeny rushed the mound at least half of the Brewers dugout probably cringed.

Vina should have hurled the ball into Albert's face IMO


Would have been legal too

Robby spit on the ump when he played for the orioles.

Anyone remember when Albert hit a lady in the chest with a baseball for calling him Joey?

I don't know if I could've stopped myself from humming it as hard as I could at him if I was Vina.

I played catcher and I am a pretty big guy. There was a guy that was running towards home, saw that he was toast so he headed back to third. I started running him back but waited to throw until he got closer to third. He proceeds to turn around and ran towards me stops and then tried to pick up speed to run me over. It was like he ran into a wall. he dropped like a ten pound bag of shite. Thats my CSB

I have it dvr'd. It was big time. Belle had some major run ins eith Boston, KC, and Milwaukee.

Still a shame that he lost MVP voting to Mo Vaughn in 1995. No one can possibly put logic behind that one.
