For those that don't know the story
SWEET-C is talking about..."Me-me-ME!"
...I looked it up...although I did watch the perfect game story during the last few innings on the computer...
Before this gem, Braden was best known for his enraged reaction to Rodriguez walking across the mound on April 22. Still angry after the game, he told the slugger "to go do laps in the bullpen" if he wanted to traipse across a mound.
The squabble was still simmering last week. On Friday in Boston, Rodriguez said he didn't want to extend Braden's "extra 15 minutes of fame."
A-Rod struck a far more conciliatory tone Sunday.
"I've learned in my career that it's always better to be remembered for some of the good things you do on the field, and good for him," Rodriguez said before facing Boston. "He threw a perfect game. And, even better, he beat the Rays."
That said, Braden's grandmother may have gotten the last word:
"Let's forget it, uh huh -- and stick it, A-Rod," said a chuckling Peggy Lindsey, who was in the stands watching.
.... Tonight has to be better... Of note: Nationals have a better record than us right now...
