Dustin Pedroia Will Defend Bryce Harper's Honor When He Gets to Toronto
Pedroia said he knew the identity of the reporter who asked the question and said he planned to “blow him up” when the team visits Toronto for three games beginning Sept. 14.
In Pedroia’s opinion, Harper handled himself well.
“Poor kid,” Pedroia said of Harper on Wednesday. “I would have said [expletive] you, I’m 19.”
Um… OK. I think if we’re going to be offended, it should probably be because he’s Mormon and not because he’s 19. You can drink in Toronto at that age. Crossing the Canadian border doesn’t change your religion. Either way, this has to be a guy that Pedroia has disliked dealing with in the past.
