remember when todd hundley got heckled so viciously that he flipped off cubs fans at wrigley after hitting a home run

quote:

Todd Hundley came up with a novel way earlier this season to deal with the boos at Wrigley Field. In an effort not to take the jeering personally, he pretended he was in New York.

Hundley tried a different method Wednesday after he homered in the sixth inning against Cincinnati.

As Hundley jogged toward first, cameras caught him flipping his middle finger in the direction of the Reds dugout. Hundley, though, apparently had no animosity for the Reds. He said after Thursday's game the gesture had been directed at hecklers over Cincinnati's dugout.

Precedent has been set: one-finger birds fired at fans are ok. Double-birds at opposing teams are ok. But the dreaded double-bird fired at fans is NOT OK.

Let it be known.

Whoa he had one bad game? I guess 1 solo HR in 1.2IP is a bad game for him too, so make that two bad games.

I was looking up to see if Greg Maddux actually had the most Madduxes and I learned that in 2006 at 40 years old he got traded to the Dodgers at the deadline, and then in August he pitches eight shutout innings on 68 pitches

and gets pulled for the loving closer

I'm sure the Yankees won't participate but it would be funny if both Didi and Castro wore Jeter jerseys since both of them once had GMs (Towers and Hendry) compare them to The Captain.
