and i still think we are going to retaliate to maine's retaliation last night. we're just waiting for the right moment to do so...
here's what maine said last night regarding hitting felipe on the first freaking pitch of the game:
A night after Mets starter Nelson Figueroa called the Nationals “softball girls” for cheering in the dugout during his loss, Maine (5-2) hit Felipe Lopez with his first pitch of the game. The ball grazed Lopez’s right leg but the leadoff hitter angrily threw his bat in front of the plate and briefly glared at Maine as he walked down first base.
Maine said he was just trying to establish the inside of the plate.
“I just got a little too inside I guess,” he said with a shrug.
