Ruben Amaro isn't the only one who bristles at Cliff Lee questions.
Nick Swisher responded angrily with expletives when asked about potentially facing Lee in a Game 7:
"You guys are talking about Cliff Lee? [Expletive], who cares?"
Later, at just the mention of the name again, Swisher interrupted a reporter's question:
"I'm not talking about Cliff Lee…I don't give a [expletive]."
ESPN New York's Andrew Marchand has the story here.
He should give a shit. Cliff Lee has dominated the Yankees in the postseason the last two years, going 3-0 with a 1.88 ERA.
Can you blame him? That’s all they have to be hearing about. Even though I’ve really been wanting to see the Phillies beat the Yankees in the World Series, I really hope the Yankee Killer gets one more shot to assert his dominance.
By the way, gotta love the picture of Lee here.
Someone needs to tell Nick Swisher that he is, um, well, . . .Nick Swisher. No one cares what he thinks. He wouldn’t be a star player if he played for the KC Royals.
Little Nicky, you should be more worried Lee and less worried about your f[expletive]king flaming side burns. Ya little whiny-arsed Pansy!
