Orioles manager lambasts fans who ran on field in Seattle

But I bet his spinnbarkeit is worse than his bite!

Baltimore manager Dave Trembley lambasted two fans who ran on the field during an Orioles game Thursday night at Seattle.

During the game, two spectators jumped onto the field and ran behind Orioles outfielder Jay Payton.

“It’s embarrassing to baseball,’’ Trembley said Friday night before a game against the White Sox. “I wasn’t happy because I’m a big proponent of respect. I think that’s the epitome of disrespect, when two idiots run onto the field like that.

“They came up from behind two of my players. ... I wish I could have taken them in the back room myself. I would have beaten the snot out of both of them.’’

"I would have beaten the snot out of both of them."

Yeah, I'm sure he said "snot."

Dave Sims said during the broadcast that if that had happened in Philly those fans would need assistance to leave the game.

True story: In the late 1940's, a small group of kids in Yankee Stadium once ran out to centerfield during a Yankee doubleheader to ask for Joe Dimaggio's autograph. He signed for two of them before the cops chased the rest of them away. The crowd booed the police, not the kids.

I believe someone once ran onto the field to give Jeter her phone number.

My favorite was the guy serving David Justice with court papers.

I always get David Justice and Andre Rison confused with regard to whose house was torched by Left Eye.
