Story by Mark Grace....
Rick Sutcliffe gave up back-to-back HR`s in Cincinnati. And in Cincinnati, they shoot off fireworks after a Red hits a HR. Sutcliffe was pretty intense on the day he pitched. So Eric Davis takes him deep & Paul O'Neill takes him deep right after that. So Sutcliffe is all mad, and pitching coach Billy Connors comes out to the mound & Sutcliffe yells at him "I know I gave up back-to-back home runs, but get your ass back in the dugout and tell Zimmer to settle down too!"
Billy looks at him & says, "I know you have everything under control, Rick. I just wanted to give that guy running the fireworks a little more time to reload."
With apologies to Mr. Sutcliffe, my favorite baseball story!
