A Public Service Announcement… (The Game Last Night Between the Jays and Yankees)
If you’re just listening… The Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees do not, and I mean do not like each other.
It seems bad blood was still stemming from A-Rod’s “ha” moment in May. According to the AP, “Several Blue Jays were angry at Rodriguez after he distracted Howie Clark on a key popup late in a game May 30, yelling at the infielder as A-Rod approached third base. Jesse Litsch threw behind Rodriguez’s legs in A-Rod’s first at-bat in Monday’s series opener.”
So A-Rod was hit again on Tuesday night by Jay’s starter, Josh Towers.
This time, “Rodriguez immediately took a few steps toward the mound before he was cut off by umpire Angel Hernandez. The Yankees and Blue Jays spilled out onto the field. Toronto’s Matt Stairs had to be restrained by New York’s Andy Phillips as he tried to go after A-Rod at first base.”
Roger Clemens was on the mound for the Yankees, and he made sure that the Jays didn’t get away with it.
So in the 6th inning, he drilled the Jays’ Alex Rios in the back.
Nothing like bean-ball, eh?
