You Mess With The Bull…
Josh will be more than happy to show you the horns, Kenny Lofton.
I love the look in Josh’s eye there. Kenny may be wild, but Josh would squash him like a bug- and he’s giving Kenny a look like he can’t decide whether to punch him in the face or point and laugh at his stupidity.
First up, the video of the whole incident, from start to finish.
The homeplate ump was mic’ed up for the game, and here’s video showing what he said when he stepped in between Kenny and Josh:
This wasn’t the first time Josh has gotten into it with Kenny for his bat-flipping antics at the plate. Here’s video of their confrontation back in 2005 when Josh played for the Marlins and Kenny played for the Phillies. Eck compares Josh’s no-bullshit attitude on the mound to that of Nolan Ryan (my hero!), who also refused to put up with showboaters back in his day.
“Yeah… [Josh, Nolan,] Roger Clemens… they’re all from Texas.”
“It’s this Texas thing!”
no vid of Paps doing the YMCA? :D
Josh is such an A-hole. lol
