Tantrum of the season

Phillip Wellman managed here back in the late 1990s. He's a character _ for good and bad. He was nice enough the few games I covered.

 

To pretend he was in battle and throwing a grenade was classless and I hope he gets 50 games for just that part.

 

The army should sign him up toot sweet, because if that really had been a grenade it would've done a tremendous amount of damage. Perfect placement.

 

He managed the Bees? Wow, I wonder if he did developed any style points for that tantrum at Community Field??

 

He had a couple that I remember. Nothing on this level.

 

I guess Wellman finally broke out of his shell last night. ;D Ah, gotta to love Single-A ball in Iowa (Burlington, Clinton, D-port, Cedar Rapids). Fuck you Waterloo for breaking my heart and not renovating Municipal Stadium. Could have kept the Diamonds in town if the city wasn't so stupid and oblivious.

 

Did he have a 'Nam flashback?

 

Can you imagine the fines and points penalties if a NASCAR driver were to throw a tantrum like that? I guess every game has it's "thing" though.

 

that was an eruption. Pure and simple.

 

Glad to hear my old stomping grounds soundly like it had a full house last night.

It's a beautiful ballpark in Chattanooga, one of America's most underrated towns.

 

True. But people in other sports are allowed to have personalities, unlike the robots that Mike Helton and the Frances want in NASCAR. Keep those freakin' sponsors happy. :
