Biggio's right arm
« on: May 31, 2006, 02:31:24 pm »
Did anyone notice that Biggio reached over with his left hand to give Mansolino five as he rounded the bases last night? Brownie speculated there was some type of injury to his right arm.

Anyone?
Oye. Vamos, vamos.

Absolutely, JD and Brown also commented on it in the post game. No idea what it is.

His last HBP was Monday vs. Marquis but it was on the front left arm wasnt it? If not that might be it...
Remember Jesus Alou being called out of the 1st base coaching box to pinch-hit a double vs. the Reds in '79 I think, to win a crucial game, and he patted Morgan on top of the head (ala Benny Hill w/the little bald guy) and Little Joe got pissed.....yeah,that was great.

Not like this. Cameraman made a closeup of it too, but Co-ard announcers didn't say anything about it.
