So, Not Bob, Ty (and whoever else), I'm wondering if you watched the Yankees-Red Sox game last night. If you did, you probably saw the play where Robinson Cano tagged Millar out in the second inning. If you didn't, I will describe it for you.

Millar is on first, a sharp ground ball is hit to Cano. Cano who is standing right behind Millar goes to tag Millar to start the double play. Millar is a good 30 feet from second base. As Cano applies the tag, Millar, trying to avoid it, falls over on his back. Cano, tries to step over him to make the throw at first. Millar intentionally sticks his legs up in the air to trip Cano. Clearly interference, even though the brain-dead umpires didn't make the call. Cano falls and is unable to complete the double play.

Please explain to me how this is any different from ARod's slap-play in the playoffs. Is Millar now in the same class as Arod as far as gamesmanship goes? Should he forever be categorized as a cheap player?

I haven't heard Schilling admit that his teammate made a "bush league" play yet, but I'm sure it's coming.

Yeah! (What he said.)
