On the other hand, what Manny Ramirez did after hitting that homer was totally unprofessional. After hitting the ball, he s-l-o-w-l-y strolled down the first base line and pointed triumphantly into his dugout as the ball went into the stands. You could have boiled an egg in the time it took him to circle the bases. Now that I could see the A's getting upset about. Even I was upset about it and I'm a Red Sox fan.
There was a time when doing something like that would have earned a player some serious chin music the next time they came up to bat.
