    Crazy Ballplayer Stories

    I came across this crazy Keven Mitchell story. I had never heard of it. Supposedly, Mitchell, in a fit of anger, cut off the head of a girlfriend's cat!

    While with the Mets, Jimmy Piersall told teammate Duke Snider that he would get more press with his 100th HR than the Duke did with his 400th. And he did - by running the bases backwards.

    I also heard once that Kevin Mitchel threw his own father out of his house because he was late on the rent.

    "I have the ultimate respect for Whitesox fans. They were as miserable as the Cubs and Redsox fans ever were but always had the good decency to keep it to themselves. And when they finally won the World Series, they celebrated without annoying every other fan in the country."--Jim Caple, ESPN (Jan. 12, 2011)
