What Took the White Sox So Long?

Chin Music: Bobby Jenks of the White Sox threw behind the head of Texas 2B Ian Kinsler Saturday. It wasn’t an accident: “No, I meant to. To send a message. Basically I was saying, ‘I’m sick of seeing our guys get hit and hurt and almost get taken out of the game.’ I threw it with intention.” Unfortunately, the two do not play again this season (unless both somehow make the postseason, which is mathematically unpossible). The final tally: In the six-game season series, six White Sox were hit with pitches. Only one Ranger got beaned. (Chicago Tribune)

When I look up “douche” in the dictionary, it says something about feminine hygiene. Wait, what was I getting at there? Oh right, I was trying to say that Bobby Jenks is a douche.
Meanwhile, I would like to bottle up the scent of Ian Kinsler’s taint into a cologne that I wear while I masturbate to his picture.

Wrong. It was waist-high. Totally different.
“I’m not going to put a guy on in that situation,” he said. “I was not going to hit him. I made my point with that pitch and it came across the way I wanted it to.
“I’m not going to go dirty. I was going to keep it low and behind him.”

So he was sending a message to the Ranger team that they won’t play again the rest of the season at the end of the series.
Makes complete sense to me.

White Sox closer Bobby Jenks surprised even his manager with his admission that Saturday night’s fastball behind the butt of Ian Kinsler was thrown there on purpose.
Um that’s the first line of the article you just cited. No where does that say “threw at head.” At some point you’re going to read the articles before posting about them right?
