I remember when Pete Rose's hitting streak ended, he was pissed that the pitcher tried to get him out. He said he was entitled to see all fastballs in his last at bat.

We've loved prior mercenaries like Paul O'Neill, David Cone, Jimmy Key, David Wells, etc. We have to keep up with Boston's mercenaries like Josh Beckett, Manny Ramirez, etc.
But A-Rod and Clemens will never fit into that category. Ever.

Nope...nor can I be sure that this so called imaginary rule ever existed.
Not even listed in the list of supposed unwritten rules!
The Book Of Unwritten Rules by Baseball Digest : A Legendary List on Baseball Almanac
It just shows how much of an ass Arod is . And his lack of respect for the game. Steroids is another example. MLB Network nailed it by saying only Arod would have done it.
LOL! Another one that needs to get over himself....A guy that is 17-21 with a lifetime ERA of over 4.50....really?
It is funny how often it's the Lightning-Rod. Yelling HA! at a player ready to catch the ball in front of you? A-Rod.
Knocking the ball out of Bronson Arroyo's glove? A-Rod.
Possibly the first person in the history of baseball to create a stink by crossing the pitcher's mound? A-Rod.
And the list goes on...
Sandra
Dude....get over it. just about anyone who was anyone did it...it's over...passed!
Unless you were a Reds fan.
VERY true! But he was even disliked on his own team.....
I know this doesn't directly address the question, but just maybe, the Washington Nationals will become the best team in the National League shortly. They are 1.5 games out of first, their best starting pitcher is just tuning up in the minor leagues and will be up in the bigs shortly, and with a paltry $60 million payroll, they will be able to affors to buy a few stars if they are still contending a month or so from now.
David "the exaggerator/liar" Wells is your source for baseball comments?!
Seriously? LOL!
Yeah and Johnny Bench hated him because he was more popular in Cincinnati than he was, even though Bench was more popular overall.
It didn't bother anyone when "Reggie" threw his hip at the ball in the World Series, or when he used to pound nails into his bat to make it harder, or when they found that the bat he used to hit three homers in a game against the Red Sox had a flat side to it.
Because it's picking on poor poor Afraud.Why is it not allowed to quote David Wells?
Sandra
I met Bench years ago at of all places at an Evel Knievel Jump at Kings Island in Ohio. Check out this video when asked about Pete Rose.
