K-Rod Strikes Out

I missed this story while on vacation:

Brawling pitcher Francisco Rodriguez is out at home — and off to anger management, the New York Post reported Saturday.

A stone-faced K-Rod showed up at Citi Field on Saturday afternoon to make his first public statement since allegedly assaulting the grandfather of his children and verbally lashing out at his girlfriend last week in a shocking dustup inside the clubhouse.

The Venezuelan-born relief pitcher stared straight ahead into a room packed with reporters as he apologized to Mets’ management — but not to his girlfriend Daian Pena or to her 53-year-old father, Carlos.

It certainly seems to be anger management year in the majors.
