“He didn’t impede his throw. He just threw the ball away,” Randolph said. “So I don’t understand the play. You should just let us play.”
OK, let’s see how that works after a month or two. Bean ball battles are cool and stuff.

I’m up for a little more spice in the Braves/Mets games. Makes beating them that much sweeter!

Maybe Randolph should review the rules for the NL, because that play would have been legal in the AL, but in the NL the runner has to be able to reach the bag. Wright was a good foot and a half away from the bag with an outstretched arm. It’s amazing to me how many people who are in the game or write about the game don’t understand the rules. Of course, if the rules were the same for each league it might be a little easier.
