No way in hell did I balk on that pitch,'' he said. "That was a horse----- call. I don't know if the guy has a problem with me or what, but it was a (expletive) call...I don't know if he had money betting on the game, but that was a (expletive) call.No doubt Walker will be in hot water with the league. A couple of weeks ago, the Red Sox' Josh Beckett endangered the health of another player. Video and recap on the link if you have forgotten the incident. Beckett's suspension was reduced to five games which, for a starting pitcher, meant that one start got pushed back one day.
Anybody want to bet me that Beckett's sticks and stones rate less of a punishment compared to Walkers name calling? It might just be my Orioles inferiority complex talking, but I think MLB will use Walker and the Orioles to send a message. With Beckett and the Sox, they were interested in fairness.

I have to see this play still, but I love that Walker came out and said what he said.
Sure he's going to get it but these kinds of coments are rare and YOU KNOW they are thinking them way more than reported.
