Wright Move By Collins?
Mets 3B
David Wright and manager
Terry Collins got into s shouting match yesterday when
Collins pulled him for a pinch hitter
in the seventh inning. The Mets were down 7-0 when Brewers 2B
Rickie Weeks hit a deep home run off
D.J. Carrasco and then admired it before running to first. Carrasco exacted revenge on the next batter,
Ryan Braun, by plunking him in the shoulder. Wright knew he'd get hit by a pitch when he led off the bottom of the inning and so did Collins, who pulled him to shield his star from a potential injury.
Wright was not pleased with this move.
