Was listening to the game today on the radio, and they were talking
about Billy Wagner breaking the all-time record for strikeouts by a
lefty reliever. They said Ross was doing everything he could to get
Wagner to save the ball, but he refused. (I guess Ross never thought of
just catching it and tossing it to the dugout.)
Finally, after a walk, I guess "the" ball was fouled into the stands,
upon which the Braves' PR staff negotiated its retrieval (for
Cooperstown or whatever). When later asked why he refused to keep the
milestone ball, Wagner asked why make a big deal out of something you're
supposed to do, when you're losing?
Someone tell me, why the hell hasn't this guy been a Brave until now?
He's a BRAVE!
