BOSTON - According to several Fenway Park sources, Alex Rodriguez called Doug Mirabelli over late yesterday afternoon and challenged the Red Sox' backup catcher over what Mirabelli said about A-Rod's actions at the plate Tuesday night, when A-Rod homered but looked around for the ball as if he didn't know where it went.

"He told him he should know better than that," the source said. "He told Mirabelli that he wouldn't disrespect the game or show up Tim Wakefield. He told Mirabelli he should know better to say anything like that because they played together."

Mirabelli, a teammate of A-Rod's in Texas, was miffed that A-Rod didn't know he went deep. His comments indicated Mirabelli believed A-Rod was grandstanding, one of the few acts A-Rod hasn't been accused of by his legion of critics.

"The guy's got 450 home runs," Mirabelli said. "He doesn't know when he's squared one up? I don't believe that."

I read it this morning. The headline tricked me. That wasn't no confrontation. A confrontation wouldv'e gone like this:

A-Rod: Yo, I heard that stupid sh*t you said yesterday, ass hole.
Maribella: Yeah, you were hot-dogging. Stop lying and acting like you thought it was a f*cking foul ball. You've hit 400 homeruns, you know the difference between a homer and a pop-up behind the plate.
A-Rod: That f*cking ball was popped up, it's just that your pitcher throws like such a 10-year-old that I didn't even need to make good contact to hit it out.
Loser catcher: f*ck you. You've been a prick since the Rangers.
A-Rod: But I'm a rich prick; a prick that's better than you. So keep my name out your f*cking mouth before you get punched in it.
Guinea f*ck: ..............OK.

You know it was one of those boyfriend-girlfriend fights where A-Rod said with clenched teeth "You know me, you know I wouldn't do that, YOU KNOW THAT" but it wouldn't be real loud, he'd just be squeezing his arm real tight.

The bigger thing is that Mirabelli had the balls to say it after Manny walked to first base.

Manny didn't walk to first base. He pulled out a lounge chair and sat in the batter's box with his legs crossed.

Exactly. This is why Boston players and fans have been jokes for years. They only see their little Red Sox Nation side of it. Apparently the bostondirtdogs are realists though, and they ripped on Manny for it.

The biggest joke is that Mirabelli opened his mouth. This shitstain is only there to catch Wakefield, that's it. Loser.
