What was Phelps' problem today in the Yankees game?
Question:Why did Josh Phelps push over the Mariners' catcher today in the game? The media is calling it a hard slide, but come on. It was no hard slide.
He pushed him over. He didn't even need to slide, the catch wasn't even covering the plate, he was off to the side towards the mound. And then Phelps had to go back to touch the plate. It was so bizarre. I'm a Yankees fan, and I didn't think this was a very Yankee thing to do.

That guy should be suspended for that play. You're right. the catcher was nowhere near the plate and Phelps went out of his way to bash him over.Yankee thing to do? Allowing Clemens to not travel with the team? Is that the Yankee way?
Something weird is happening in the Bronx...wreaks of panic.
Who won the girls softball game last night between LCU & Stanford?
I dont think it was a Yankee thing to do either. I dont know why Phelps did that. He didnt need to do that. The catcher was no where near the plate. Oh well its over now and MLB didn't do anything about it so we as fans cant either. It was more of a BO SOX thing to do !!!!!!!!Where did Gabe Kapler ( of the Red Sox ) go?
He was over-eager and trying to show Joe that he plays hard and deserves more playing time. It was an ill-advised decision that he made in the heat of the moment.Nobody was hurt and he shouldn't (and won't) be suspended.
