Balta1701 Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Well, this is probably one way of annoying MR. Selig. The Yankees displayed a sign by the customer service booth on the main concourse, explaining it wasn't their fault Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Johnny Damon and Bernie Williams had departed for the World Baseball Classic. "Thank you for expressing your concerns," the sign stated. "We are sorry that certain players will not be present for portions of spring training. These players have elected to participate in the World Baseball Classic. The World Baseball Classic is an event sanctioned by the commissioner of Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association. The New York Yankees did not vote to support this event. Any comments you have regarding the World Baseball Classic should be directed to the commissioner of Major League Baseball or the Major League Baseball Players Association." Supposedly the sign has come down after Selig complained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 What right does Selig have to make the Yanks take down THAT sign? There isn't anything demeaning in the message, and it's on Yanks property. I hope this damn WBC bombs and Selig looks like an ass, what a prick. And you MUST be a prick if you have me defending King George and his band of merry man like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshot7 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I'm listening to the Dom/Ven game - now it's 6-3 Dominican in the 6th. Miguel Cabrera just hit a two-run homer for Venezuela. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshot7 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I was hoping Zambrano would get rocked in his 2nd inning- but he looked good. Now Victor Zambrano in for Venez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Wow, Colon really kicked some ass. I thought he'd be a little rusty, but it was the Venezuelan pitchers that were. Lot of walks by Santana and Zambrano. Not good when you have to face some of those Dominican hitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
