response to:Someone tell Joe Madden to quit crying.  He didn't have a problem when it was his team playing "to hard" in the spring, but when the shoe is on the other foot it's not acceptable.  I guess Joe is just suiting up for another sub 500 season, wait a minute why is he still a manager?  The guy hasn't had a winning season yet!!  Tampa is the only organization that would tolerate a second rate manager like him.
Yankees-Rays feud boils over
Two of his players and two of his coaches were ejected Wednesday, but Yankees Manager Joe Girardi insisted his team had not been looking for a fight with the Rays. Shelley Duncan did not injure Akinori Iwamura with a spikes-high slide at second base Wednesday, but to Rays Manager Joe Maddon, that was beside the point. Maddon saw malicious intent from Duncan, who gave Iwamura a small cut on his knee. "In Tampa, that play you saw was a good, hard baseball play," Maddon said, referring to the play that injured Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli. "What you saw today was the definition of a dirty play. There's no room for that in our game. It's contemptible. It's wrong. It's borderline criminal. I can't believe they did that."

Ramming into the catcher has always been allowed in baseball, but I always thought that it should be outlawed for that exact reason,You could seriously injure someone. This isn't football. Also Duncan is a jerk, isn't he the one that wrote "Boston sucks" on a young boys baseball, when he asked for an autograph?
