You know, I know that there's been some – and I had plenty of those questions when I pitched, and I'd give up eight and two runs and two innings pretty much every start up there.
It was so bad one time.
I told this story not too long ago too.
I think it was when they were beating the shit out of the Yankees –
people ask me or I was talking to somebody about it and I'm like yeah I felt like they were fucking cheating when I was up there too because I mean it didn't matter I literally would every time I pitched up there it got so bad that Tito actually skipped a start there for me I was going good at that time and he literally made me pitch like like they had an off day so I pitched the next series first day really because he's like it was so bad yeah I mean I bet my ERA is like 12 there
I remember thinking the same thing.
I'm calling Kevin Millar like, what the fuck are they doing?
Am I tipping my pitches?
Then we start getting intel that they got somebody in the outfield and shit.
In the hotel rooms.
Yeah, telling them what's coming.
I'm like, yeah, that's probably it.
Anyway, then I'd pitch against them at home and I'd shove for seven innings.
Five days later.
Do you have any tattoos?
None?
None, not one.
You know, I got my first one.
Why wouldn't you try that at 59 years old?
