Anyone see Ozzie Guillen's tirade last night? Padilla hit Pierzynski twice, and apparantly Ozzie warmed up two pitchers in the seventh, and brought in the first (Tracey) apparantly just to bean Hank. Tracey threw inside a couple times but never hit him, and eventually got him to ground out.

Ozzie immediately yanks the guy, then throws a hissy fit in the dugout, throwing water everywhere and getting in the kid's face. Tracey had to pull his jersey over his head to cover tears apparantly. Then they sent him to AAA today.

Wow.

Ozzie is an ass to do that...BUT...you can earn/lose a lot of respect from your teammates in that situation. You have to protect your hitters. Ozzie's reaction was ridiculous, but that kid's got to get the job done there and send the message.
