The guy has a target on his back now and he's about to be 28 years old. He's been around the game long enough to know how to handle himself. He should've known that scaling the left field wall to yell at crazy Yankee fans wasn't a brilliant idea. It's a decision that will stick with him every time he plays a game against the Yankees.
So, Straw's return to Yankee stadium wasn't warm and fuzzy.... big whoop, read more HERE. He's not the first to get this fan treatment and he certainly won't be the last. This also won't be the last time he gets it either. He can look forward to the same unwelcome reaction every time he steps foot in Yankee stadium, and I am not stating my opinion.... it's a fact.
Obviously, death threats are a whole other level and that's disgusting and speaks volumes about people who go to this extreme. Straw says there was "no point" in talking about Tuesday's game but he still wants to whine about it. There's a lesson to be learned here. There are certain fan bases that have loyalties that are so deep that they are in a league of their own.... New York is no exception. Small town Cleveland and Houston where he's played before do not compare.
Maybe now he's learned a lesson the hard way, because now he has a target on his back every time he steps in New York. Big mouth picked a fight, can't back it up now and wants to whine about it. No sympathy here.... just makes me want to beat you even more.
