Big Poopi Complains About Scoring Decision

from CSNNE

David Ortiz burst into the middle of Sox manager Terry Francona’s press conference in the media room upstairs from the Sox clubhouse, and was running hot about something. Ortiz said “I’m [bleeping] pissed. We need to have a talk . . . you and me” before the manager and designated hitter agreed to talk about things at a more appropriate time. Then Ortiz gave away exactly what was bothering him when he muttered “[Bleepin’] scorekeeper always [bleepin’] [bleep] up” while exiting the room. Ortiz was most certainly upset about a change made by official scorer Chaz Scoggins in Wednesday night’s game that turned his first inning two-run single into a one-run single with an error on the left fielder allowing the second run to score. That means an RBI was taken away from Ortiz midway through the game, and he was upset enough about it to bust up Francona’s daily pregame meeting with the press with a few choice words. When approached later in the clubhouse, Ortiz declined comment comment on the incident except to say it was “between me and Tito.”

Did it strike anyone as fishy last night that Big Poopi seemed like he was winding up to hit a homer off of Colon's slider before it was even thrown. Think there might be sign stealing going on at Fenway? Check out Big Poopi's splits this year:
