Well, I enjoyed sole possession of first place. They'll be a few games into second after the Milwaukee series. The Brewers are on freakin' fire right now, and the Cubs are playing like.... well, the Cubs.

Even if he were, there's no reason he shouldn't be kicked off the team for that. That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. Who in their right mind would throw a baseball at someone from 5 feet away? I'm actually glad it hit a fan because that means more will be done to him. Just completely insane. Assult with a deadly weapon might be an option. He better hope the fan is ok. The fan is expected to be ok. I still think he's got a whopper of a lawsuit against Castillo (and perhaps the Chiefs) if he chooses to pursue it. I'll say. That fan will never have to pay for Peoria Chiefs tickets again, if he ever chooses to attend another game.
