Steffan Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Those damn Yankees tried to get a forfeit from Bud for D Rays arriving late because of Hurricane Frances. :no: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1875760 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/214502-mlbyankeesdrays-will-play-a-double-hitter/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steffan Posted September 7, 2004 Author Share Posted September 7, 2004 Piniella is angry about the request. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1876462 Talk about having no respect for a fellow team. The players put their lives in risk just to fly from Florida to New York. I think this is a all time low for any team. I do agree with boog, I hope the yankees get swept by the d rays.

Teams always ask for forfeits when the other team is delayed or can't make it. This isn't anything new. Although in this case I think requesting such a thing is in bad taste, considering the situation and all.

I just had the problem with the timing of the request. The team (d rays) rather spend time with their families instead of playing a game. That move made them (yankees) look heartless.

L3thal Veteran Posted September 8, 2004 Veteran Share Posted September 8, 2004 Comes to show how respectful the Yankees are. I just can't wait for the Red Sox to knock them to second place. A mod should edit the topic to double header, not double hitter.
