What the fuck is this, a second-grade playground? Any overpaid Peter Pan asshole who can't hold it together in the face of routine fan taunting should be stripped of his goddamned contract and forced to actually work for a living.

bullpens are dangerous because they're in places having pretty good access from the stands. the guys in them catch shit all the time from fans. now for a guy to go in there and start taunting is really crossing a line, isn't it? plus, relief pitchers are probably the most on edge of all baseball players. they have to be ready to start already fired up. going into a bullpen and starting shit really isn't smart.
the entire fight is pathetic, but the groundskeeper, or whoever he is, is as guilty. The fact he lost the fight doesn't change that.
of course, he can bring suit....in a Mass. Court, so don't feel too sorry for him.
