Apr 7 LF Johnny Damon had an interesting explanation for why he didn’t offer up more of an argument after a fan kept him from catching an Orioles’ home run Monday. Damon, who didn’t gripe about switching from his long-time leadoff spot to the No. 2 role, basically believes there’s no crying in baseball — because he doesn’t want to hear any at home. “I was hoping they would at least look at it,” Damon said of the umpires reviewing the play. “I guess I would have to just throw a hissy fit, and I don’t condone hissy fits. I don’t want my daughter to see that and think it’s OK to do that at home.”

And that is why I like Damon. I was sooooo mad too!
