Kevin Kennedy’s Idiocy
This isn’t really a surprise. The FOX Network, in general, detracts from society. There are two redeeming qualities to FOX, both of which are cartoons aired on Sunday nights. The rest of the network is really just a podium for mongolism, and that includes their baseball coverage.
Anyway, for some background, Orioles pitcher Daniel Cabrera threw a 98 MPH fastball behind Dustin Pedroia’s head last night. The reason: he was frustrated that he is a terrible pitcher. That’s it. He was essentially playing the role of Baby Huey, a 6′9″ crybaby who can’t cope with his lack of skill.
Here is Kevin Kennedy’s take:
Kevin Kennedy: “Well, Coco Crisp shouldn’t be jockeying up and down the third base line. That’s why the guy got hit”.
Jeanne Zelasko: “Giggle!” (twirls hair)
First of all, Pedroia didn’t “get hit”. Cabrera missed him, expectedly. Daniel Cabrera has the worst control and poise in the major leagues, and it is no surprise that he, once again, missed his target.
Second, you’re justifying this? Wow. It’s really shocking that no MLB teams have called you with job offers in the past 12 years.

Great take. Kennedy is one of those dinosaurs who invents new unwritten rules of the game.

Julio Lugo was doing the exact same thing during Buchholz’s no-hitter and Ortiz didn’t get a pitch fired at his head. In fact, due to the shift being in effect Lugo could easily walk halfway down the third base line without fear of getting picked off.
