"Hey, you need to swing the bat, buddy, this isn't little league,"

Just another lovely day at the ballpark.


Quote:Padres probing Nevin's exchange with heckler in Philadelphia


The San Diego Padres are investigating an incident that occurred Sunday at Citizens Bank Park after a fan complained that first baseman Phil Nevin reacted to heckling by unleashing a string of vulgarities.

In a letter to the Padres - copies also were sent to Major League Baseball, the Daily News and the San Diego Union-Tribune - Philadelphia stock options trader Daniel D. Ribecchi conceded that he was among a group of fans heckling Nevin after he struck out looking against Phillies reliever Tim Worrell in the ninth inning.

Ribecchi indicated that he was particularly upset because the remarks were overheard by children, including his 8-year-old daughter.

According to Ribecchi's letter, he hollered, \"Hey, you need to swing the bat, buddy, this isn't little league,\" and that the player responded, \"Why don't you go [bleep] yourself?\"

Nevin, however, told the Union-Tribune that somebody had yelled obscenities at him.

\"I know there was definitely one guy who was yelling profanity at me. And I probably said some things back to him,\" he said. \"I was a little unprofessional. It's not something that's that uncommon. It happens out there. If, in fact, there were kids around, I apologize for that. It was obviously not directed toward them or anybody like that.

As a die hard Philadelphia sports fan, I am only ashamed of this incident because the pussy went and complained to the Padres.

99% of the fans here would find being told to "go fuck yourself" from a pro athlete incredibly funny. What kind of dick goes and tattles on a guy for saying something? AWFUL.

The guy that came down to escort him out of the park talked him into filing a complaint. He thought the whole complaint thing was pretty stupid.

I'm just disappointed that whenever I yell at professional sports players they never take the energy to yell back.

I'm so useless.

Good news, the Foursome of Sundin, Belfour, Roenick and LeClair are headed for the back 9.

Back to you Kenny.


In other news, Mike Schmidt once said

"You're trying your damndest, you strike out and they boo you. I act like it doesn't bother me, like I don't hear anything the fans say, but the truth is I hear every word of it and it kills me. "
