Keidel: Time For Yankees To Bean Ortiz And The Boys From Beantown

How should the Yankees handle David Ortiz’s theatrics? The genteel response is to assert the only way to stop such celebrations is to keep him from hitting home runs. Since that is impossible and, frankly, the meek man’s way of handling Big Papi, I must side with the second solution. Drill him.
