BUT, he was stupid to argue the call with the umps and do the fake running motion and try to claim that he was just running. The crew will watch that all on Sportscenter tonight, and those guys remember stuff like that. Moises Alou can't get a call because he's got a reputation as an asshole and a crybaby. A-Rod is just hurting himself by lying about that kind of behaviour...

I agree. You can't blame the guy for trying. It's his job to make the play, it's the umps' job to make the call. He shouldn't argue it, though. It's pretty obvious from the replay that he slapped the glove. Is he still maintaining that it was the wrong call?
