"He," Dodgers manager Grady Little says of his catcher, in the loftiest of baseball terms, "is a dirtbag."
And then, after showing a sly smile, Little explains in his gravelly voice: "He's a baseball player."
What do you think of baseball player Russell Martin? He's a baseball player.I submit this for the approval of the Dodger fans who wrote in to defend Grady a week ago.
Also, the Red Sox of the early 00s called themselves "Dirt Dogs." That I kind of understand. But isn't calling your guy a straight "dirtbag" just kind of insulting?
Thanks to reader Karthik for the tip.
