Yesterday Coco gave what the Rays considered a cheap shot going into second. Today he gets hit in his first AB and the fireworks commence.
Because of this, Shields may not pitch against us.

Happy now? |

| Coco looked like he got touched up a bit, probably should have just headed down to first. Gomes, Iwamura, Crawford, and Navarro all got punches in. Great teamwork! |

Joe Maddon has that team fired up.
They lose Pena, Crawfords hurt, dealing with suspensions and just got swept.
I think they were better off before! |

There are couple of different angles here. You can see Coco get beat pretty good when he was taken down. I like how Crawford got in a few punches while Coco was on the ground. Way to go Rays. It's SOOO easy to hate Boston. If a batter runs to the mound, he's running into the lions den. |

| For a former boxer, Crisp wasnt impressive throwing punches. Though he did a good Pernell Whitaker impression by dodging the Shields' punch. |

Location: P245 | Shield's is lucky Crisp dodged that. There was some velocity behind that swing. He would've been on the DL with a busted pitching hand. Crisp was a little rusty on his counter punch there. I don't think this has been settled by the teams. Looks like the Rays have one coming....at Crawford. Seesh, they know he can't fight. |

I Love Crisp's answer to what happened...
A Red Sox source told ESPNdeportes.com that the cause of the dugout disagreement was Youkilis' temper following a poor at-bat.
"It all happened because Manny complained about Youkilis' habit of throwing bats, helmets and other objects in the dugout when he has a bad at-bat, something that has become a constant practice," the source said.
"Other players have told Youkilis in the past about the situation, which makes him look selfish and that he is more worried about each at-bat than about the team. If Boston is winning easily, there's no reason to throw objects all over the dugout because of a bad at-bat.
"There was a meeting where the team let Youkilis know that many of his teammates were tired of his explosive reactions for each bad plate appearance. It became very bothersome … more so when the team is winning and it's in first place. There's not much room for individualistic attitudes."
The Red Sox were 38-25 entering Friday's game with Seattle and are 1½ games ahead of the Rays in the AL East standings.
Boston's Dustin Pedroia and Coco Crisp both said they didn't know what happened during Thursday's disagreement.
"I really didn't see it," Pedroia said. "I was running out onto the field. We're around each other a lot, but we love each other. We're a team."
"You have to ask them," Crisp said. "I was eating next to Youkilis and said I don't want to know. I saw Manny. He was speaking in Spanish." |
