Besides, how many of us has actually built a hospital?
I am a fan of Ortiz but if you watch him after every called third strike, he could be tossed out of the game. He is a chronic complainer and is eventually going to piss off every umpire in the game. He needs to get his emotions under control. To be fair, Youk has the same problem and could have cost us a game last week when he got tossed.
