Faking getting hit by pitch

Don't really care for either team, but I do wish the next pitch had been at his ear hole. Getting him to swing at a crap pitch for the strikeout would be a distant second.

That's no way to play the game. If I was that kids coach, I would bench him until he formally apologized face to face to the ump as well as the other team. I hate a damn cheater.

Its baseball.

A 2nd baseman or shortstop seling the tag at 2nd, is that considered cheating too?

On an unrelated note, just heard they turned OJ loose on a not guilty verdict.

i think it's just the extent the guy went in this video...faking it is not uncommon, but to point your bat at the ump and carry on like that...little far

The Cubs' DeJesus tried it last night against the Braves...luckily, the ump didn't go for it. Just part of the game as long as you don't make an booty of yourself.
