Fernando Rodney was just enjoying the moment, dont you know?


Fernando Rodney* of the Tigers has been suspended 3 games for throwing (according to sportswriters it was not just a lob) a ball into the press box at Tropicana Field after the Tigers victory over the Rays Friday.

Per the Detroit News, Rodney said, "It was nothing. I didn't hit anybody." He further indicated that he was just "celebrating the moment."

Ok. I am a Tiger fan so I guess I am supposed to come up with some knee-jerk defense of Fernando Rodney here.

Hmmm.

Still thinking.

Something will come to me sooner or later.

Too hard.

*This probably wouldn't have happened if Roman Colon was pitching like he is on Rodney's card above.

Tennis players smash their balls into the crowd after a win so Rodney can too, right?!
