"Red Sox left fielder Mike Carp walked toward the infield to point out the situation to umpires at Steinbrenner Field, and they called out the grounds crew to address the matter."
big ol wussy.......these guys spit, chew, adjust themselves, grab at their manly crotch, slide in the dirt, whack themselves silly in a ballfield to catch a ball, knock players out with a ball or get nailed with one, pick fights with umpires and other players.......? ? ?
very sad, but it happens every year....
