Congratulations to the L.A. Dodgers for coming from the dead in June (30-42) to win the NL West.
As far as their impromptu pool bash behind the right-center field wall at Chase Field (or whatever that stadium’s called now), they got even for the Diamondbacks trying to go Royal Rumble on the Dodgers at Dodger stadium.
Arizona had requested the Dodgers not celebrate on the field, so they didn’t. Instead, they hopped the right-center field wall to get to the swimming pool. Then they acted like most of us did during our college years. Like a bunch of frat boys. As long as they didn’t deface the pool or pee in it, I have no problem with their conduct.
As far as potential retaliation is concerned, Bud Selig should suspend the next pitcher that throws at any batter. This applies to both teams both ways. The suspension should be at least 25 games if it’s a starting pitcher and 5 games if its a batter, since starting pitchers pitch once every 5 games. This feud had better stop before the police get involved, whether in L.A. or Phoenix. The commissioner doesn’t want that to happen.
Act and play fair and safe, Dodgers and Diamondback players, and stay out of trouble.
