Bryce Harper may be the biggest douche bag in the league. Guy gets hit by a pitch and wants to pretend he's a fighter. Ryan Braun is still in the league. |

However, I doubt that it was an intentional thing in a one run game. Plus, the way he acted during that homer, he deserved it. |

How did he "act" I hate this stupid baseball stuff that you can't flip a bat or enjoy hitting a homerun. |

Red Sox starting a knuckleball pitcher in his first start with a catcher that clearly has no idea how to catch a knuckleball. 4 passed balls in the first inning. Just 4? I could have sworn there was more. Or am I seeing double from slamming my head against the wall. And now Farrell won't even send him out for the 2nd inning. They're going to tie a phone to his back and let Papi go nuts. |

Enjoying it is one thing, watching the homer and flipping the bat just shows a lack of class (in my opinion). Certainly when you're 13.5 GB in the division. |

That's just celebrating, which should be allowed. |

I guess I'm too old-fashioned. Agree to disagree, I suppose. |

The whole "flip your bat and celebrate" thing seems to be a divide between the younger guys and the veterans.
Baseball players are too sensitive about that sort of thing anyway. I don't really care about bat flipping or watching your homer so much as you don't like, taunt the other team or anything.

Hopefully, we don't see another collapse like they did a few years ago. Because I don't think Boston will have that happen again to cover it. But, I digress.... |

Also, Kimbrel strikes out Harper to end it. Perfect. |

The Tigers and Braves have been crazy hot recently, yet it seems that all people want to talk about on the networks is Alex Rodriguez.

I guess it's the trainwreck theory- something going bad seems to get more interest than something going well.
Last year, the 57-win Nuggets got less TV/radio discussion and headlines as opposed to the dysfunctional Lakers that finished with 12 fewer wins.
