Bush League or NOt

[oregonweim]

I love how the media here in the Northeast always busts down on Arod. Anyway, out here the talk has been whether or not Arod's play against Toronto last night was bush league or not... what says you all?

 

[swany]

I think it was bushleague...but I DON'T think it is worthy of all the talk about it. I swear that is all Jim Rome was talking about today.

 

[jaymix79]

not bush league.... play to win and they needed a win.

DISCLAIMER: I am not a Yankee's fan

Didn't see what happened, but just read about it. All he did as yell when the guy was going to catch a pop out? Sounds like the media needs something to talk about...

 

[seahawks4ever]

not bush league at all. Gamesmanship yes. Was it bush league for Rick Hamilton to stand in the way of LeBron James whent he was getting ready to put the game out of reach? No. Just a ploy.

I obviously don't like the yankees, but I thought it was a very good play. I would have done the same thing.

shoot I did that in little league. Although I yelled "I got it!"

I was a kid.

Yeah, I don't see why trickin the fielder should be considered bush-league. It's the thirdbasemans fault that he didn't call it off better.

Exactly. Maybe ok in Little League, but cheap in the bigs.

yeah but he didn't yell I got it. He said HA. To me, the third baseman still needs to make that catch...

If he said HA, I agree, he should make the catch. If he yelled "I got it", different story.

yup. We are on the same page. I saw the replay on Sportscenter and it looked like he said a one-syllable something. HA! or AH! or whatever.

i dont think the yelling is bush league...its baseball but i still voted yes because of all the other scumbag moves he has done

I would have and have done it , didn't work though.

C'mon MEN the 3rd baseman is a turd for not knowing his players voice or location. It's fielding 101 , know your location and the location of others. And yes i've played the game , not on this level though which doesn't really matter. Fear will kill you in Baseball , I have the crooked nose to prove it
