That's why he's the best!
The Cardinals reliever Julian Tavares broke his left (non-pitching) hand in a fit of rage during the club's Sunday loss to Houston. Tavares broke three bones when he punched the dugout phone after giving up a homerun to Carlos Beltran. It is not known when he could pitch again. This comes almost a month to the day after the Yankee's Kevin Brown made a similar mistake, only this time a brick wall was the focus of his rage.
What amazes me is that these players are smart enough to avoid using their pitching hand. I mean, they're obviously pretty dim, as they can't seem to stop themselves from punching immovable objects, but there does appear to be some flicker of awareness there.
I decided to do a little investigation, and I think I've gotten to the bottom of the case:
Well, that's why RJ's the best!
