Rivalry at its best!! It was a typical series between the Yankees and the Red Sox over the weekend. They only game I got to watch was the last one and it was not that entertaining. Congratulations to Red Sox for winning the series. They needed to win the series just to be in the playoff picture and did a great job. For me thereýs nothing like Yankees beating Redsox. We have seen time and again the immature attitude of Red Sox players, be it Pedro bringing down 75 yrs old Don Zimmer or Red Sox pitching staff gunning down Yankees players. I can not comprehend myself why would they do like that. Could it be that loosing always to Yankees or the 2nd citizen treatment in the MLB. Whatever that is, it needs to be stopped from Red Sox side. I could not believe what Varitek did to AROD on Saturday. Veritekýs move was totally uncalled for. After being hit by the pitch, AROD got upset and stared at the pitcher and of course bombed few F and MF words towards Arroyo, believe me you and I would have done the same thing. It was the first time I saw AROD get into a fight and itýs nice his other side as well. Itýs nice to know he does not back out from anybody in the field. As for Jason ýThe Thugý Veritek case, I am pretty sure there was financial motive behind it. He does not have a contract after this season and could be trying to build some stock as a tough guy and he chose the wrong path. I wonýt be surprised if he gets few thousands more from this case. But this guy has to get paid for what he did. He should make sure he come with the body armor and head as well when he plays Yankees in the next game. I would suggest Yankees pitching staff to hunt his head. Yankees players! teach this guy a lesson or two so that he doesnýt mess ever again with the 252 million dollar Baseball Prince.
