Jimmy Rollins Walks It Off, Tells Fan to “shut the f$%k up”

Jimmy Rollins walked it off in the tenth with a solo blast and as he tossed his bat toward the Phillies dugout, he appeared to yell “shut the fuck up” to a heckler.
He explained while talking to Gregg Murphy and that extra G after the game:
“Got a fan up there yelling at me, so I wanted to shut him up more than anything.”
It’s hard to tell exactly what Rollins said, but the sentiment is obvious. I imagine this is something Jimmy has been waiting to do all spring following the who cares comment and that ensuing fallout.
You know, it could have been a Marlins fan heckling Jimmy…. but, yeah, that’s doubtful. Either way, I like the spunk from J-Roll™.
