Transgressing The Unwritten Code

A-Rod was on first. Ran to third for a foul ball. Ran back to first in a straight line--right over the pitcher's mound. Dallas Braden was not amused:



I don't think Rodriguez just did it to save time. I think it was a cheap move designed to break things up a bit.

Braden should have used some old heckler comeback like "I don't come to where you work and..." followed by something disgusting.
