A Disgruntled Yankees Fan

Hey, I rearranged my schedule yesterday so I could watch the Yankees pound the Mets, but the bizarre Roger Clemens bat throwing incident kind of put a damper on any enthusiasim over the win. ESPN has a look at Clemen’s various explanations for throwing the piece of broken bat at Mets catcher Mike Piazza, but whatever his motive, it is largely irrelevant. He should have been ejected immediately from the game. Since that didn’t happen, a league suspension would be the next logical step — Clemens shouldn’t be allowed to pitch again this year (it was very annoying that the Fox announcers tiptoed around this question. Fox’s baseball announcers are almost as bad as Fox’s football lineup is good).
