Well, a baseball being thrown at a player happens and the bat was just a moment of intensity. Everyone homers off of someone eventually, so no... that is not the reason Scooby.

Yes, but when a guy with Clemens' control and accuracy hits a batter in the head, as far as I'm concerned it's deliberate. (The same applies to Pedro by the way, before I'm accused of pro-Red Sox/anti-Yankee prejudice!!)
Cheers.

| Actually, I just remembered one funny thing I read. Before hitting Piazza in the head with a pitch, Clemens (as a Yankee) had 19 wins and 16 losses. But since he hit him in the head, Clemens has 20 wins and just 3 losses!!!! So it looks like it really got him pumped up!! |

i unfortunately missed the whole game except for the last inning or two when everything was pretty much over with but from what i saw on ESPN it looked like a great game. i couldnt believe the stopped play to celebrate Tony and Cal that was amazing!
Tony shoulda been given at the very least a pinch-hit at-bat, but oh well. |
