| ''I've been in the big leagues three months and he's probably the best player in baseball. I'm not going to tell him how to slide,'' Pedroia said, attempting to defuse things. But when reminded of his comment about lowering his arm angle on his throws to discourage future incidents, Pedroia said: ''It protects me. If you come in late and with a high elbow, I've got to do something.''
The Yankees are reportedly suggesting that A-Rod's slide was in retribution for a second-inning slide by Pedroia in which the rookie second baseman appeared to have taken out Derek Jeter (AP Photo, right) despite being significantly out of the baseline at the time. But Pedroia disagreed that he'd done anything wrong. |
''I didn't think my slide was wrong,'' he said. ''I came in low and on the base. I might have been out of line. If I did, I apologize to Jeter.''

It's baseball !!! Guys slide.... some slide well and some like A-Rod slide poorly. A year from now Perdoia might not be as respectful of Mr. A-Rod and might low-bridge him. The long and short of it is "Hey Lighten up it's baseball "

Remember this date Sox fans...if we can continue to look at the A Rod vs. Tek fight as the turning point of the 04 season, than, we must look at this night as the possible turn-a-round for the hated NY Yankees...We have our ace on the mound with the opportunity to retaliate on A Rod and put him on his back, not to mention, send the message to Pedroia that he has his back...Shilling not only does not respond to what A Rod did, he floats up another stinker against the Yankees this season...talk about a statement, or more importantly, LACK thereof...
