| 0:00.0 | Mookiee Betts getting drilled by a fastball. |
| 0:04.5 | It was in the sixth inning with one out, and Hanley Ramirez, of course, do up next, |
| 0:11.6 | so it would be a really bad position to hit someone. |
| 0:15.0 | But nonetheless, that's the guy they were going to hit if they were going to throw at someone, |
| 0:19.6 | and that happened. |
| 0:21.5 | The picture had been pretty wild up until that point, four walks. |
| 0:26.4 | So who knows? |
| 0:27.2 | John and I both believe he wasn't hit on purpose. |
| 0:30.0 | But Adam Jones, after the game was talking about how he had a bag of peanuts thrown at him |
| 0:36.1 | and that he heard several racist remarks in his direction. |
| 0:40.9 | He said, I was called the N-word a handful of times tonight. Thanks, pretty awesome. |
| 0:45.1 | And he said that he has had this experience several times in the past at Fenway Park, |
| 0:51.3 | but it was the worst one in his 12-year career. He said, it's different. Very unfortunate. I heard there were 59 or 60 ejections from tonight in the past at Fenway Park, but it was the worst one in his 12-year career. He said it's different. |
| 0:55.0 | Very unfortunate. |
| 1:11.6 | I heard there were 59 or 60 ejections from tonight in the ballpark. I wonder how many ejections there are on an average evening at Fenway Park. I would like to know that. You got to ask a man named Bird. You know what? That's a great person to ask. Bird, who works on our show, also works there, and someone tweeted us that photo yesterday. They did indeed. |
| 1:12.8 | He has an earpiece in, like an FBI agent. Oh, boy. Green. Oh, boy. Yeah, he's got a earpiece in, and he's just, he's standing there. He's looking like he's paying attention. What do you think is in that earpiece? What's being fed to him? Like old... Drake. Drake. Old Mr. Rogers. To calm him down. He said, this is for Madam Jones. He goes, it is what it is, right? I just go out and play baseball. It's unfortunate that people need to resort to those type of epithets. |
| 1:44.4 | I'm going to get that word right to you later to degrade another human being. I'm trying to make a living for myself and my family. It's unfortunate. The best thing about myself is that I continue to move on and still play the game hard, let people be who they are, let them show their true colors. But then he was talking about the kind of punishment that people like that should get. He said it's pathetic. |
| 2:01.2 | It's called a coward. |
| 2:02.5 | What they need to do is that instead of kicking them out of the stadium, they need to find them 10 grand, 20 grand, 30 grand, something that really hurt somebody. If you're getting a drunk dude that's yelling racial stuff and throwing peanuts on the field, good luck in your 30 grand. Right. I have a feeling like that's a little tough. |
| 2:18.7 | I'm sure they're just going to pull it right out of their pocket. |
| 2:20.8 | Well, he says you should garnish their wages. He goes, make them paying full if they don't take it out of their check. Well, that's a lot of work. That seems like an awful lot of work for throwing peanuts. How about the major ass kicking that you're more than likely going to get for saying the N-word in a crowd full of people? |
| 2:34.4 | I don't think that that would happen in Fedway necessarily. |
