Major League Baseball fans

So, I thought I would share this with you all. As some of you know, I am becoming more and more of a Twins fan. With that comes a distain for White Sox catcher (and former Twins player) AJ Pierzynski. Those of you who know him, may enjoy part of an editorial from the Star Tribune by Jim Souhan. This weekend AJ seemed to attempt to step on our firstbaseman's foot a few times which is just one of his jerk-face tactics...:) I enjoyed booing him several times on Sunday and Monday when we were at the game! So, here's the intro of the editorial:

"Of all the people who have encountered AJ Pierzynski's viral strain of gamesmenship, only Michael Barrett got it right. Swing first, ask questions later....[Barret, the Cubs catcher, punched him for no real reason last May]....Barret thus instituted the Pierzynski Rule, which should be adopted by every major league team - hit him when you get the chance and figure out later whether you were seeking revenge for past insults or making a downpayment on future grievances. If AJ doesn't deserve a punch today, he'll earn it in the future."

Hmm, who else can we use the Pierzynski Rule with?!
